Uptown New Orleans

Why go

Come to see how New Orleans changes beyond the compact historic center. St. Charles Avenue provides the grand architectural spine, while Magazine, Freret and Oak streets bring smaller neighborhood centers, food and shops. Audubon Park and the universities add green space and public landmarks to an otherwise residential part of the city.

What to look for

• Oak-lined residential blocks and varied historic houses
• Neighborhood centers along Magazine, Freret and Oak streets
• Audubon Park, Tulane and Loyola along the St. Charles corridor

Useful to know

• Choose one corridor and one anchor; Uptown is too broad for an unfocused walk.
• Use the St. Charles streetcar for the long axis, then explore selected blocks on foot.
• Keep residential privacy in mind when photographing houses.
