Katrina-Rogers Photographs, Item 32; September 19, 2005

Archival Description

"Waveland, Hancock County, MS. Monday, September 19, 2005. Looking south toward Beach Boulevard. Ruins of home located on southwest side of Nicholson Avenue."

Detailed Description

From the Mississippi Department of Archives and History Rogers (Jeff) Hurricane Katrina Photographs Collection (PI/2005.0024). Color photograph of the remains of a home on a now mostly empty lot. In the foreground of the image, there appears to be a driveway that is littered with debris leading up to a plot for a home, but the home is scattered about in pieces from the power of the storm. On the left-hand side of the image, there is also a tractor that is pushed up underneath a tree which is still standing but mostly bare of its leaves. In the background, there are a few standing powerlines, as well as the water of the Gulf of Mexico.
