New Orleans French Quarter Real Estate, Using Photos to get a Feel

By
Real Estate Agent with Gardner Realtors, Licensed in La.

A lot of people do live in the New Orleans French Quarter in the present. It was the origional city of New Orleans in the early 1700s as an outpost in the New World as a Spanish and French outpost. Most of the residents live in condos that are of course very old. Parking is hard to find but people enjoy walking and seeing other folks. The French Quarter has it characters all packed into a small space. Many people buy second homes in the area to enjoy or have friends use them. Katrina has made many think about living here,but its been almost 300 years with out a flood. I do not think this area of town has ever flooded even before the Mississippi River Levees were built in the 1920s.

I was trying to cut the photos down, crop them so I could get a feel for the quarter in strips. its an artsy place so why not try some as I did with the partial webpage as featured below. You can take a look at the rest of the page if you would like. New Orleans French Quarter Real Estate . Just wanted to give you some idea of how you can be different. I took many of these photos at sunrise to catch the light at an angel and came back later to get the rest. Always use your own photos as google will store them in their image file and know where they came from. So now you know a little of the French Quarter and some ideas about a neighborhood webpage. I can always go back and add a little text in my own words,much like a blog! The objective is to get people to ask me about French Quarter Condos so you have to show them something they may miss. I will do a separate Bourbon Street page before LSU plays Notre Dame in a couple of weeks as it should be spicy by then.

                           

 

Getting a glimpse like these photos should make you want more. There is much more to the quarter than Bourbon Street and the t-shirt shops. Spend your time looking and finding what you may enjoy. The French Quarter is a walk away from the Warehouse District and the Faurbourg Marigny, it's a ferry ride away from Algiers.


 



 



 



 



 



 



 



  New Orleans is a great place to play a Bowl Game such as the Sugar Bowl because of all the fun, drink and eats you can have before the game. Then you can walk to the Superdome. Walk because driving is not a good idea. If your team wins you can walk back to celebrate. Go Tigers LSU

I really like the layout of the strips, and your historical intro is just enough to leave readers wanting more. A series of these would make a great email drip program for potential buyers.

I did this blog so long ago I forgot that I had done it. Croping your photos can give them a panoramic look and get a lot of sites in the space.

Dale, a website allows you to do so much more the condo or home. You can give a real good idea of the common areas and the entire neighborhood.

Eric, I have shown your blogs and website about New Orleans condos to my husband.  After seeing the Cotton Mills condos and some of your other photos he is finally comfortable with the idea of selling our second home in Florida and buying a condo in New Orleans.  We love New Orleans, and being so much closer to our home in Baton Rouge, we can spend a lot of weekends there.  Thank you, and have a Happy New Year.

Eric- LSU plays Ohio State, the #1 team in the Nation on January 7th. Is there room for the country's largest traveling fans down there in the bayou?
