Seven Oaks Mansion in ruins, but with its roof still on. It was
located within an industrial tank farm in Westwego across the river
from New Orleans. The majestic house was surrounded by a grove of
seven live oaks and was distinguished by twenty-eight Doric
columns, seven on each side, and by deep galleries. Through the
years the house suffered greatly from neglect and from souvenir
hunters and vandals, who stripped the interior of its fireplaces,
molding, stairs, and flooring. The ruins were bulldozed in
1977.
