There's an interesting blog maintained by an employee of a New Orleans
ISP who stayed at their center, located in the CBD, throughout the
disaster and kept it running.

I don't know New Orleans geography, but it sounds like he must have been
close to the BellSouth "main" facility on Poydras, as he mentions it at
least once

On Thursday Sep 1 he says

Huge convoy of fuel and generator engineer types affiliated with Bell
South just moved down the street toward their building. That's where 2
of our OC3s that went down are at Bell's main.
