Description
English: The Inner Harbor Navigation Canal (IHNC), commonly known as the Industrial Canal, in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. The canal provides a navigation channel between the Mississippi River, Lake Pontchartrain, and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. In this photograph, the Mississippi River is at lower left. The Industrial Canal branches off to the right. At top right the Canal turns left to enter Lake Pontchartrain in the far distance. The Intracoastal Waterway branches off to the right (east). View is to the northwest. Total length of the Canal is about 5.25 miles (8.5 km).


Lower 9th Ward neighborhood is to the right of the Canal, with campus of Holy Cross High School clearly seen. To the left of the Canal is the Bywater neighborhood. The St. Claude Bridge over the canal is the closest; further back is the Claiborne Avenue Bridge, and the old Florida Avenue Bridge is visible as well. The Florida Avenue wharf complex is on the left (up river) side of the canal.
