April 13



























Abandoned building at the Milne School for Boys, nearly five years after Katrina.

The school, for troubled and needy boys, opened in New Orleans's Gentilly neighborhood in 1933.  It was founded as a biracial facility, but due to segregation, two of everything was built.  The facility ceased operations as a residential center in 1986, although it did continue to offer after school, summer, and other community programs for boys.

No word on where it currently operates from, or even if it is still operating at all.


New Orleans, Louisiana
