Garden District Neighborhood
One of New Orleans’
Most Storied Addresses
After the Louisiana Purchase, the Garden District was one of the first neighborhoods developed in New Orleans. Named for the lush gardens surrounding its grand homes, it sits between the Central Business District and Uptown.
In 1971, the neighborhood was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Exterior changes require approval from the Historic District Landmarks Commission, which protects the neighborhood’s character for generations to come.
Garden District real estate ranges from landmark mansions to raised cottages and condos along St. Charles Avenue. Buyers get history that can’t be replicated. Sellers benefit from steady demand for one of the city’s most recognizable addresses.

The Garden District is served by Orleans Parish public schools, with a range of private and charter options nearby.
Getting Around
The St. Charles streetcar runs along the neighborhood’s edge, connecting residents to the CBD, the French Quarter, and Uptown. Magazine Street, Coliseum Square, and the Lower Garden District are an easy walk.

Residents are invested in the neighborhood through the Garden District Association, preservation work, and a dedicated security district. A real community, not just an address.
