Community and Crime - Out to Lunch - It's New Orleans
b'We ve all seen those lists that appear from time to time that say New Orleans is the most crime ridden city in the country that nobody in their right mind would want to live in. On the other hand, those of us who live here not only enjoy an enviable quality of life, we re also one of the places that people from other cities above us on the list most want to visit. It s in this unique climate where community and crime are strange bedfellows that we re simultaneously growing businesses as different as Inhab and WatchSystems. Inhab is designing, selling, and building houses including a complete new community in Algiers, called Patterson Point. WatchSystems is a north shore based business that tracks sex offenders. Not just in New Orleans, but nation wide. On this edition of Out to Lunch, Peter Ricchiuti is joined by the owner of Inhab, Mike Bertel. And co founder and President of Watch Systems, Mike Cormaci.
