LIfe in all of its joyful abundance in the Carrollton Riverbend Neighborhood of New Orleans, Louisiana, USA.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD: "Carrollton" is the name of an official United States Historic District of New Orleans that was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.
The 'official' Carrollton Historic District stretches roughly from Earhart Boulevard on the north to the Mississippi River on the south, and from Broadway (officially Lowerline Street) on the east and the parish line on the west.
But OUR definition of "The Carrollton Riverbend Neighborhood Community" area uses a slightly different (but not by much, see above) geographical description based upon how most of the residents feel regarding "where they live" and "what neighborhood" they live in or do business in or go to school in, or can walk/bike to easily, et cetera.
Basically, it matters not. If you love this area OR live in it, you're a part of the CRNC, period. But we wanted you to know we're "official" as a historic district well as being a heartfelt area that lives in our hearts, minds, and most importantly, souls ...

But please refrain from using this site for commercial purposes only or for posting items that may injure or offend someone else.
