The winds of Hurricane Ida have significantly damaged the iconic oak trees of Oak Alley Plantation in Louisiana, where productions ranging from “Interview With the Vampire” to Beyoncé’s “Deja Vu” music video were filmed.
The historic plantation posted to its website Friday that the building would remain closed as they begin the process of cleaning up after the hurricane.
“Oak Alley will remain closed as we assess any damages from Hurricane Ida and to allow our staff the time they need to take care of their own properties and families,” a statement on the website read. “We appreciate your messages of support during this difficult time for the entire SE Louisiana region.
