How old is this home in the Lower Garden District of New Orleans?

Eric Bouler

Lower Garden District Home, How old is this house!

    I really do not know the answer unless I look it up somewhere.  However you can make an educated guess as to the age of the New Orleans neighborhood and as to the style of the home.  This Historic side hall with double gallery puts it well before 1900 and after 1850.  I would have to start the guess at 1870.  I would then try to compare it to other homes that look like this and have the dates established.  I know by looking at this one that is has been restored to its origional splender..............You Guess?

I wouldn't have a clue as to its age, but it is absolutely beautiful!

You can often get close as to where and the style. Then you have some hard guesses.

Eric all of the architecture in New Orleans tell a story. I always guess at least 100 years old. I feel we have the most beautiful historic city. You can find these homes every where. In most cities they are cluster together.

Absolutely stunning!  I remember walking around New Orleans years ago with my parents (when we lived in Slidell) and I fell in love with these homes way back then.
