25 APARTMENTS

by Kristin Fouquet

This is a photo series of the 25 apartments I lived in before Hurricane Katrina hit New

Orleans on August 29, 2005. The "before" photographs were lost in the flood due to levee

breaches following the storm. I spent a year and nine months in North Carolina before

returning home. These "after" exterior photos were taken in October 2007. Some places

looked much the same, others were in better or worse condition, and a few were no

longer there. It was an interesting personal journey.
