Coolest, Tiniest Street Ever!...

I realized I have not really done a "neighborhood" post in a while! And since it's absolutely BEAUTIFUL outside I went for a little walk to one of my most favorite streets in New Orleans to snap some pictures to share with y'all!

It's called Architect Street which makes it even cooler in my book.

Architect Street is a couple of blocks over, in the Fauburg Marigny Neighborhood.This street is TINY (maybe half a block long?) and it is mostly taken up by some big warehouses - I'm not even sure any house, or even the warehouses have an address on this street?! 

 

I love to walk down this little street because I always discover something new. Below are some shots of some little treasures I noticed today...

There is a mill shop and I love to see what they're making, today it was a massive amount of chairs...

I wonder if these logs are up for the taking?? I want to use some for an art project....

This building is super cool, the back narrow side used to be slave quarters and now they're super expensive and super tiny apartments!

Notice the wall on the left in this photo, there is a "movie screen" painted and they show movies randomly there.

After all the picture taking I worked up an appetite for the Cake Cafe! For you locals, GREAT place to eat lunch and breakfast, great people watching, and the food is fabulous! It's also only a couple blocks away from us which is very convenient!

Crab salad with ginger/wasabi dressing... YUM!!

And of course you gotta finish it off with a freshly baked cupcake!!

I hope you enjoyed a little slice of life in da Marigny!
