Metairie and New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina - 10.23.05

This is the corner of Clover and Lotus and is my former home I grew up in as a child at 2682 Clover. The house was built by my Dad's family in 1912. This was the second house built in the area. The 93 year old palm trees are a signature of the property and the neighborhood. The house and those palms withstood many powerful hurricanes over the years.
