Garden District



GARDEN DISTRICT – Since 1832
The romance blooms as the afternoon is spent exploring memories of New Orleans’ antebellum past, gazing at secluded mansions, wandering down the brick lined sidewalks. Its canopy of oak trees is world-famous, while its characteristic gardens of hibiscuses, crepe myrtles and angel trumpets, make it one of New Orleans’ most beautiful neighborhoods. The Garden District has worked its magic again.
I will share with you the 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, The Cornstalk Fence & The Curious Case of Benjamin Button Homes.
