| Description |
New Orleans. Aerial photograph from balloon, 1914, showing "The District" aka "Storyville". View is looking lakewards, probably from vantage point above the upper French Quarter. The street running horizontally at the bottom of the photo is Basin Street, with the Southern Railway train sheds running down the neutral ground. Streets running vertically from left to right are Customhouse (now Iberville), Bienville, Conti, and St. Louis. The first full block on the left along Basin between Customhouse and Bienville has the most famous upscale houses of the district, including Tom Anderson's, the Arlington, and Mahogany Hall. St. Louis Cemetery #1 is seen at bottom right. St. Louis Cemetery #2 is near the top, in the row of three blocks, with tree-lined Claiborne Avenue behind it. At the top right, a bit of the Caronedelet Canal (Old Basin Canal) is visible beside the railroad yards. The whole of "the District" is seen, which ran from Basin to St. Louis #2, Customhouse to St. Louis. |
