A Hand-Painted “Library” Sign at Hope Haven in Marrero
Taken August 2018
Hope Haven is a former Catholic children's institution in Marrero, Louisiana, across the river from New Orleans. It opened in the 1920s under the Archdiocese of New Orleans and later served as a boys' home and treatment campus before closing. A painted "Library" sign still points down one of its hallways, left over from the building's use as a school.
