It was the costliest hurricane in U.S. history: Have we forgotten Katrina's lessons?
Sandy Rosenthal, founder of Levees.org, stands in the Flooded House Museum where one of the levees breached in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The house was flooded, though the interior now is a recreation made by local artists.

Nearly 1,400 people died after Hurricane Katrina crashed into Louisiana and Mississippi. Most of the deaths were in New Orleans, which has had an uneven recovery in the past 20 years.
