What it’s like to live in Lower Garden District
Historic grandeur defines the Lower Garden District, where Greek Revival homes and Victorian architecture create one of New Orleans' most distinctive rental neighborhoods. Apartments in converted mansions feature soaring ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, while newer construction maintains architectural compatibility. Though some streets show variable maintenance reflecting the challenges of preserving historic structures, the neighborhood's walkable access to both downtown and Magazine Street shopping creates unparalleled convenience. The streetcar line provides car-free transportation options, while the neighborhood's slightly elevated position reduces flooding concerns compared to lower-lying areas.
