This building was boarded up after Katrina; Gustav removed the front wall.
We commute by it each morning; it was days after I had returned from my road trip before that wall was removed from the street.
I have more photos and hope to take some more. Almost all of New Orleans consists of new building, renovations, and abandoned, deteriorating structures like this. The side-by-side contrasts are staggering. There is so much work still to be done to bring this city fully back to life.
As I have said before, I admire and respect the people of Greater New Orleans.
