A grand opening ceremony was held for St. Bernard Fire Station No. 6. A 20-foot storm surge associated with Hurricane Katrina submerged the building. The building received damages from a tornado that destroyed façade and fenestration elements. FEMA obligated $1.5 million to replace the building and its contents. FEMA/Ray Perez
