Abandoned New Orleans Hardware Store Finds New Life After Estate Sale

A hardware store in New Orleans, once filled with paint cans, tools, and other hardware, has been abandoned for some time. The owner of the store lived in the apartment upstairs. Recently, an estate sale was held at the site, clearing out the remaining inventory and personal belongings. The video shows the interior of the store and apartment, highlighting the items left behind. "It stretched so far back," says Chris Olsen, a picker who documented the space. The video offers a glimpse into the history of the building and the lives of those who occupied it. The building is now operating as a store again. The video's appeal stems from the contrast between the abandoned state of the building and its eventual return to operation. It's a story of change and resilience.
