High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Lower Ninth Ward is a neighborhood of the city of New Orleans. As the name implies, it is part of the Ninth Ward of New Orleans. The Lower Ninth Ward is often thought of as the entire area within New Orleans downriver of the Industrial Canal, however the City Planning Commission divides this area into the Lower Ninth Ward and Holy Cross, neighborhoods. The term "Lower" refers to its location farther towards the mouth of the Mississippi River, "down" or "below" the rest of the city in local geographic terminology. But the 9th Ward, like all Wards in New Orleans, is a voting district. The 9th Ward was added as a voting district in 1852. The "lower" 9th Ward is composed of Ward 9 Districts 1, 2, 4 & 7 which make up the Holy Cross Area and Ward 9 Districts 3, 5 6 & 8. Higher voting district numbers in the 9th Ward (8-27) are on the upriver side of the Industrial Canal. The area came to national attention for its devastation in the aftermathof Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
