Louis McFaul selected 13 THNOC images for an exhibition tracing the history of the Carondelet Canal, which replaced New Orleans's founding portage route from the bayou to the river. The canal was filled in by the mid-i930s. The Pitot House is mounting the show, which runs through mid-October 2015, to commemorate the in-progress Lafitte Creenway, a bicycle and pedestrian path on the former site of the canal.
