    French Quarter

    (FRENCH QUARTER - Since 1718) Truman Capote once described New Orleans as, “of all secret cities, the most secretive, the most unlike, in reality, what an outsider is permitted to observe.” New Orleans’ French Quarter may be its most secretive neighborhood. Here, in an area famous for its raucous nightlife and hedonistic abandon, there lives a community in love with the area’s timelessness, its beautiful buildings and handcrafted details.The French Quarter is one of the oldest communities in the U.S. I will take you through the French Quarter and give you a history lesson and show you the historic landmarks like Jackson Square, St. Louis Cathedral - 1727, The French Market - 1791, Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop Bar - 1772, Royal St., Frenchman St., Centuries Old Restaurants and Multi-Million Dollar Creole Cottages. nolabig4c0m

The Garden District has worked its magic.I will share with you te history of the Garden District from the early 1800's. You will see Multi-Million $ Local & Celebrity Antebellum Mansions of Sandra Bullock, John Goodman, Anne Rice, American Horror Story, Cornstalk Fence and Curious Case of Benjamin Button Homes.
