There is a certain beauty in the grooves and faded color of these old Marigny buildings. I imagine this to be a small workshop back in the day. Perhaps they were making shoes or packaging Maradi Gras beads or making cookies. Five loyal employees working side-by-side with the owner who resides above. Before multinational greed, before corporate corruption, before profits trumped everything, we were a nation of small enterprises working for the good of our fellow Americans. Working to make the world a better place for all peoples.
