Three Years After Katrina - Upper Ninth Ward - Holy Cross Neighborhood
I will post two other photos that I took today, this one where the house was gutted and boarded up but abandoned; another where the house is in a state of repair and another where the house is completely restored.
This was my mother's house. She spent the last 15 years of her life here.
At one time, it was the home of "Dorste's Orchids". There is a greenhouse in back where they raised the orchids.
I know it doesn't look like much here, but this was a grand old house.
I'm sure they've probably torn it down by now and that's a shame.
