Bywater/Mazant Development
Comments: My job is to find affordable rental units for persons experiencing homelessness in the greater New Orleans area. It takes an incredible amount of time to locate affordable units. HANO's affordable housing is not only beautiful but also well managed. It is extremely quiet and fits in well in every neighborhood where HANO has developed. I have visited all of HANO's developments and they are quiet throughout the day and eveningsl. I believe the opponents of the Bywater/Mazant Development don't really understand what affordable housing is. I can't believe that some of our citizens are still screaming NIMBY (Not in my backyard) in this day in age. Where is the compassion for our neighbors?
