Description

One of the beautiful detailed pastel houses in the French Quarter of New Orleans.

The French Quarter, also known as the Vieux Carr�, is the oldest neighborhood in the city of New Orleans. After New Orleans (La Nouvelle-Orl�ans in French) was founded in 1718 by Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne de Bienville, the city developed around the Vieux Carr� ("Old Square" in English), a central square. The district is more commonly called the French Quarter today, or simply "The Quarter," related to changes in the city with American immigration after the Louisiana Purchase.[1] Most of the present-day historic buildings were constructed during the late 18th century, during the city's period of Spanish rule, and reflect Spanish colonial architecture.

The district as a whole has been designated as a National Historic Landmark, with numerous contributing buildings that are separately deemed significant. It is a prime tourist destination in the city, as well as attracting loyal residents.
