The Marigny Neighborhood was one of the first suburbs of New Orleans in the early 1800's. Washington Park was once called Founders Park. It has been a neighborhood spot for gatherings from the beginning of the Marigny.
It is 2.54 acres of fenced land between Frenchman and Elysian Fields. It is open daily from 8 am to 7 pm. Frenchman Street is famous for a local Music Venue. Now a great place to rest, talk, walk the dog, throw frisbees, and enjoy the outdoors. There is also a childs playground under the oak trees.
