Peter Calthorpe and Andres Duany are among those involved in shaping the rebuilding efforts after hurricane Katrina.

"A 'dream team' of thinkers, researchers and urban planners will shape the rebuilding of Louisiana cities and towns after the destruction caused by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, Gov. Kathleen Blanco said..."

"Blanco said she expects that the group's recommendations will reflect Louisiana's 'unique heritage and will embrace designs for community growth and prosperity.'"
