This quiet neighborhood along Bayou St. John has so much of what makes New Orleans special — charming old homes and friendly people — without the hustle and bustle of the parts of the city popular with tourists. And it’s just a short drive or bike ride from the French Quarter. No bike? No problem. Download the Blue Bikes app and find a set of wheels near you to rent for the day.
Meet Danny Monteverde
Danny is a sixth-generation New Orleanian who tried living in Dallas once but quickly came home. He spent several years reporting for the Times-Picayune and New Orleans Advocate before moving to WWL-TV. Like any good local boy, he can walk to his mom’s house from his place.
