Secured

The house moved from the VA Hospital Footprint that caused a neighbor to complain two days ago appeared secured and boarded as of this afternoon.  The home, once a camelback in the 2300 block of Palmyra Street, now stands on N. Villere Street in the 7th Ward between Annette and St. Anthony.

Boarding in the 7th Ward

This morning, as I stopped by in the 7th Ward to see which buildings the Mayor's blight initiative was demolishing, I happened upon a number of Americorps folks with Rebuilding Together.  They were dropping off sheets of plywood at a recently moved VA Footprint house (formerly on Cleveland Avenue) that now sits at Pauger and N. Derbigny (and was largely boarded up).

This further confirms the fact that various parties are taking greater steps to secure the moved houses.

I've continued to enter the data. Here's the first 10 "move days" worth:
