NEW ORLEANS — HGTV, a network known for inspiring home renovations and landscape projects, began filming in Broadmoor Monday.

 

HGTV’s Change the World, Start at Home project is focusing on homes being restored post-Katrina. A hundred volunteers with the local group Rebuilding Together are helping to rebuild a house on Tonti Street.

 

Among those pitching in to help is the host of the TV show Spice up my Kitchen, Lauren Lake.

 

“We’re going to be at the Broadmoor Community Center painting and scraping and we’re also going to be at the intersection of the Andrew Wilson School planting palm trees and really revitalizing that area,” Lake said. “We’re just excited to be here.”

 

Broadmoor is one of five communities nationwide chosen for the campaign.
