The Faubourg Marigny, immediately downriver of the Vieux Carré, is a bohemian neighborhood with a Caribbean-cosmopolitan vibe. The bright historic Creole cottages, shotguns and Classic Revival homes that fill this neighborhood, which was established in 1806, are the homes of chefs, artists, writers, musicians, academics and others, lifelong New Orleanians and transplants from around the world alike, who were inspired enough by the Marigny’s unique character to make their home here.
