Charity Hospital In New Orleans: A Case Study

232 Words1 Pages
Charity Hospital in New Orleans, La. has been abandoned since Hurricane Catrina hit the area in 2005. For nearly a decade, the building has been dark and vacant, but on Christmas this year, some vibrant lights shone in one of the hospital's windows. Lisa Walley Staggs, who is a registered nurse, first noticed the lights through the window. Staggs took a photo of the vacant hospital, and a window with Christmas lights can clearly be seen next to the hundreds of dark windows. Other people also noticed the strange light. Mike Arbon, who works as an anesthetist at Tulane Medical Center, took photos of the lights as well. Arbon's brother died in Charity Hospital while it was still open, so he said that the lights were both beautiful and creepy.
