The Good morning. I'm Jane Pauley, and this is a special edition of Sunday morning.

We're in New Orleans, known as the Crescent City, for the shape it forms around a bend in the lower Mississippi River.

A place of uncommon resilience, all the more compelling as we approach Friday's 20th anniversary of the devastation from Hurricane Katrina.

But also a hub of unique culture, food, music, and design.

The magnificent estate we're calling home for much of the morning is Longview House and Gardens,

eight acres of lush greenery and vibrant color.

Built as a private residence nearly a hundred years ago,

Longview and its gardens are now open to the public year-round,

with local designers taking particular pride in its heritage.

But as Lee Cowan explains, that's just one part of the multifaceted legacy of New Orleans.

It's been said, New Orleans is as much a feeling as it is a place.

And this week, New Orleans is as much a feeling as it is a place.

And this week, that feeling is a mix of both remorse for what was lost in Katrina 20 years ago.

And resilience for just how far the region has rebounded. We'll take you through its neighborhoods, its parks, its restaurants, and on the river.

All throughout the morning.

Gumbo, jambalaya, benniers, all traditional New Orleans fair. Morocco will introduce us to some chefs putting a new spin on the Crescent City's classic cuisine.

New Orleans has always been a culinary crossroads.

Chef's Serene M. Buy.

And Nina Compton are bringing something new to the mix.

So tender. More people need a goat in their lives.

They do. I agree. I agree.
