	Audubon Park in New Orleans - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The park is approximately six miles to the west of the city center of New Orleans and sits on land that was purchased by the city in 1871.
		The park is named in honor of artist and naturalist John James Audubon who lived in New Orleans starting in 1821.
		A number of the park's old live oak trees were blown down when Hurricane Katrina hit the city in 2005, but as the park is on the section of high ground near the River levees, it was above the flooding of the majority of the city after Katrina.
