(CNN) -- Elkhart, Indiana, has suffered through a litany of economic bad news and layoffs.

South: Famed New Orleans hotel closed after Katrina hiring hundreds



The Roosevelt Hotel in New Orleans, Louisiana, is almost ready to reopen after being shuttered after Hurricane Katrina struck in 2005. After undergoing a $145 million renovation, the hotel will be staffed by 400 employees.



This past week, more than 5,000 job seekers came to a job fair at the downtown landmark. Some of the people hired will begin in a few weeks, while others will start later.



"We are looking to make some additional hires in September and in October when business picks up," Roosevelt employee Melissa Kariker told WDSU.



One applicant at the fair had worked previously at the hotel.



"I started my career with the Fairmont-Roosevelt," Gregory Smith said. "I worked in the Blue Room for several years." Read the report on WDSU
