NOLA Architecture 022 - Trent Reznor's Studio

Please click on the images for larger, more-detailed versions.
This was Trent Reznor's studio at Magazine & Jena, which I learned moments ago is a former funeral home (very fitting and also very punk rock). Our house is pretty close to it. We walk past it when we go to La Boulangerie (a bakery) for breakfast. Trent Reznor has had nothing but good luck after moving from New Orleans. First of all, he sold his house on Coliseum St. right before the Hurricane. Then he sued his manager for taking money from him (in contracts that he signed!)- and won! It's hard to write those angst-ridden songs for disaffected mopey youths when everything is coming up roses. That's why we got that miserable Nine Inch Nails (or as Edd's dad calls them, "Nine And One Half-Inch Nails") album, "With Teeth". This property, however, seems to have been on the market for years.


After Katrina


It kind of sprawls.
