Tall Timbers offers green space, local shops and community clubs
Living in Tall Timbers offers residents the unique opportunity to be in one of the newest subdivisions on the Westbank while remaining mere minutes from historic Old Algiers and Gretna. Founded in the 1970s, Tall Timbers is a suburban haven just a 20-minute drive from downtown New Orleans. It's commonplace to see neighbors on afternoon strolls, though residents travel by car outside the neighborhood. The residential community is made up of more than 550 homes along with restaurants, grocery stores, banks and a library. But its people are what make it special. Community spirit is strong here, and several homeowner’s associations, an active garden club and a bird sanctuary thrive here thanks to volunteers and members. “Tall Timbers is well-established. It’s quiet and has a great reputation. The homes are well-maintained, and there are no Airbnb or rentals in the area. It’s on the Westbank, but it’s still easy to get to the rest of the city,” says Melissa McClendon, co-owner of the Nola Home Realty Group. The Tall Timbers neighborhood of Algiers welcomes residents to the community with traditional architecture, active civic clubs and ample green space.
