From the popular buildings of the French Quarter to the lesser-known gems of River Ridge, the Crescent City is filled with exquisite historical structures that families have lovingly tended and proudly called home for centuries. In this book, the residents of New Orleans's notable homes invite readers inside.

Iconic abodes, inside and out, from across the city. The Crescent City's rich cultural heritage is preserved in its grand houses. This collection of essays and photographs features homes from all over the city, from the French Quarter to the Garden District to River Ridge. It shares the stories of current and former residents and explains how modern designs nurture the spirit of the past. Stunning photographs provide a window into New Orleans's magnificent history.
