New Orleans and its iconic riverfront neighborhoods are documented here in high detail, from the historic Vieux Carre and Faubourg Marigny to the Garden District and the legacy of Storyville. The Mississippi River forms the central axis, curving through Gouldsboro Bend and the Third District Reach, separating the city proper from West Bank communities like Gretna, Algiers Point, and McDonoghville. This 2015 edition provides an exceptional record of New Orleans' unique funerary landscape, mapping numerous historic burial grounds including Metairie Cem, Holt Cem, and Lafayette Cem Number 1. On the Jefferson Parish side, industrial and transit infrastructure is prominent along the Harvey Canal Number One and the Westbank Expy, while large institutions such as Tulane Univ of Louisiana and Dillard Univ anchor the uptown and lakeside districts. The map preserves the complex network of canals like the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal and the Intracoastal Waterway that define the city's modern geography.
