The Heartbeat of New Orleans

Description

These decorated streetcars can be found around New Orleans as part of the Young Leadership Council's Streetcars community art project. In the wake of Hurricane Katrina there was a great need for something fun and positive in the streets of New Orleans. Over 60 were individually painted by artists and placed throughout the city. The streetcar in this scan is from artist Karen Stakelum. ### Location 📍 [Tulane Medical Center, New Orleans, LA](https://scaniver.se/L29.95534,-90.07595) ### More Info * [History of the Streetcars project](https://www.myneworleans.com/young-leadership-council-streetcars/pic/42997/) * [Young Leadership Council](https://ylcnola.org) * [Streetcar locations on Google Maps](https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&ll=29.955381000000024%2C-90.07592800000002&spn=0.085523%2C0.177155&z=18&mid=1CF3iWEAsEiBXxQZwK4F-zxQYBq4)
