Uptown & Garden District

Highlights

New Orleans tradition meets contemporary lifestyle in Uptown and the Garden District areas of New Orleans. Magazine Street is at the heart of this part of the city and serves as the neighborhoods' commercial artery. Grand 19th century Greek revival mansions intermingle with charming frame homes and traditional, more modest, shotgun homes.

​

Uptown and the Garden District are appealing to younger singles and younger professional couples or families, looking for eclectic, creative neighborhoods steeped in New Orleans tradition.
