Tips from the community

It’s thanks to the Baroness, Micaela Almonester Pontalba, that we are able to gaze upon the ever-emblematic, parisian-style Pontalba buildings. Occupying two sides of Jackson Square in the French Quarter, the red-brick Pontalba buildings are a staple on any NOLA Instagram photo op list.
