Bywater

Bywater

Located only minutes away from the French Quarter, the Bywater neighborhood has an abundance of traditional architecture and has become a haven for preservationists and do-it-yourself renovators. The area is between the Faubourg Marigny and Holy Cross districts, and it sits atop some of the earliest land grants in the city.

Atmosphere

The Bywater is overflowing with character and charm from residents who proudly call this trendy, young neighborhood home. The residents are a mix of long-time locals and recent transplants, many of whom have an artistic bent. The neighborhood is full of bright, colorful houses and greenery. Enjoy a scenic view of the Mississippi at Crescent Park.
