    "Everything is within walking distance or even a short drive. You are far away from Bourbon street that you feel safe but close enough to walk to the action if you want. "

    "My commute is outside of New Orleans, about 30 minutes. It’s definitely easy because I go the opposite direction of traffic!"

    "I've lived in the area for several years and love it. The historic area has had a major upgrade since I've been here, a renaissance that is continuing as we speak. Close to everything - The Magazine St. corridor, St. Charles Ave, the river, the Superdome, the Warehouse district and French Quarter... as well as the main roads in and out of the city..."

    "We loved living in this neighborhood -- there are tons of absolutely fantastic restaurants, shops and entertainment all within walking distance. The French Quarter, Superdome, Mississippi River Moonwalk, and Farmers Markets are all within a couple blocks of Julia & Magazine as well. We looked forward to the first Saturday of every month when the art galleries on Julia Street would all open their doors to show off their new exhibits. People from all walks of life would come out, enjoy a glass of wine and see great art while meeting new people. We also loved the White Linen Night festival on Julia Street every August. We Miss Living here!!! We would recommend this area to anyone looking to rent or buy property in New Orleans."
