This is an update on a story published last month.

A family that vainly struggled through more than six years of bureaucracy to get back into their Katrina-damaged home, an effort recently chronicled in The Lens, finally gave up and had the structure torn down.
Homeowner Kisa Holmes said she found out last week that the demolition on her 9th Ward home was complete. That came just days after The Lens reported on her efforts to get back into the deteriorating house after her mortgage company coerced her into using her flood insurance money to pay off her loan after the 2005 hurricane.
