Lower Garden District

While not as famous as the better-known Upper Garden District, the houses in the Lower Garden District of New Orleans actually predate those in the Upper Garden District, having been built in the early 19th century. The neighborhood is one of curving streets and scenic vistas, and the Lower Garden District surrounds the Coliseum Square, a popular New Orleans landmark. The Square was intended to be part of the Lower Garden District envisioned by Barthelemy Lafon in 1806 and 1807 and was originally to be a colosseum. Lafon named area streets after the nine Greek muses, and while many of his plans never materialized, fountains, statues and mansions were all erected in the neighborhood as intended, and the area soon came to be the fashionable place to live.

In later years, the upper class were slowly replaced by boarding house owners and many of the mansions were converted into apartment buildings. The area was undergoing restoration before Hurricane Katrina and remained relatively undamaged afterward, enabling the restorations to continue. Residents are a mixture of older couples, small families and singles. The architecture of the area is mainly early to mid-19th century with a few newer additions.

The neighborhood boundaries are St. Charles Avenue, Felicity Street, Prytania Street, Thalia Street, Magazine Street, and Julia Street to the north. To the south is Felicity Street, Magazine and Constance Street, Jackson Avenue, Chippewa Street, Soraparu and St. Thomas Streets. To the east is The New Orleans Morial Convention Center, Crescent City Connection and the Mississippi River. On the west is First Street. The neighborhood is within minutes from the Interstate, the French Corner and many attractions available Uptown.,/p>
