For so many people in New Orleans, the road home has been long and difficult. In almost every neighborhood in town you’ll find blighted, hollow shells of former homes. Some still have markings from Katrina search crews. It’s not unusual to find gutted, empty buildings standing next door to beautiful new homes. Good neighbors take care of the lawns around them to keep up the property value or for their kids’ safety. Others do it simply to maintain the illusion of normalcy.
