Cooler than a polar bear’s toenails.

 

There are several theories about how the name for the Bywater came about – the most logical would seem that it’s by the water – so Bywater. This “sliver by the river” offers all the charm, quirks, and character you would expect in a New Orleans neighborhood.  It’s one of New Orleans’ most colorful neighborhoods, and the architecture is dreamy, especially if you love Creole Cottages, with Victorian touches and details. 

Filled with restaurants, bars, and involved neighbors – there is a reason people love living here. A wonderful neighborhood for walking, biking, and hanging out; you may never want to leave once you move in! 

 

Lagniappe: All of the Bywater neighborhood was once the Olivier Plantation House
