You’re actually wrong about this. BW Cooper, St Thomas, and Magnolia are the ones I drive through or by very regularly and they all actually still look like they’re in good condition.
For now they’re still well maintained. But the construction on these is much much cheaper than those sturdy structural brick ones from the 40s-60s. These will deteriorate faster but as of now they actually look a lot nicer than many unsubsidized New Orleans neighborhoods
they are also mixed income and the tenants are held to higher standards of maintaining their units than they were in the old building that were built in the 40's

They also have a lot more subsidized housing now, so the problem is pushed back towards private landlords in many cases.
The results will be the same, but it will hopefully take more time. They were really stupid with those high density public housing complexes with no background checks and almost no law enforcement.
