8525 Apricot Street {Northwest Carrollton}

FEMA Section 106
Public Notice Regarding Historic Review of Privately-Owned Residential Buildings Proposed for Demolition in Orleans Parish, Louisiana – Non-Collapsed Buildings Seeking Comment

This house is in great condition in a highly repopulated area between Carrollton Ave. and Leonides Street

I was able to peek inside and see that the house had been gutted and with very little effort could be put to use as a home.

We also have a shotgun in the same area as this house. The floodwaters were much deeper, but because it has plaster walls we were able to remediate the mold and put the house back into use.

The hard part has been done on this paticular house, moving all the wet and ruined contents now it would seem that a bottle of bleach and a scrub brush could turn this place back into a home.
