Hidden gem in the heart of New Orleans
Right in the heart of downtown New Orleans, Tulane-Gravier is an up-and-coming neighborhood with easy access to everything in the city. “It’s a bit of a hidden gem,” says Ninh Tran with Reve Realtors, who’s sold real estate in New Orleans since 2015. “Historically, it’s been more commercial and industrial, but recently, they’ve added more residential properties, and with the addition of the Lafitte Greenway, it’s easier than ever to get to nearby neighborhoods like Mid-City and the French Quarter.” He speaks praises of the neighborhood and often encourages clients who hadn’t previously considered it to look at properties there. “So far, all my clients who’ve bought properties there have loved it.”
Creole cottages in urban neighborhood
Tulane-Gravier has a mix of single- and multi-family homes. Most listings are Creole cottages, though some are townhouses, center hall cottages and shotgun houses. The houses are tightly packed on their streets, as this is a densely populated urban neighborhood. Though there are some two-story homes, most houses are single-story, so plenty of sky can be seen. The median sales price here is $335,000. Buyers should expect to pay at least $250,000 for a single-family home and at least $500,000 for a multi-family unit.

School choice in NOLA Public Schools
Through the New Orleans Public School Enrollment Process, NOLA Public Schools allows students and families to choose a school that best fits their needs. Nearby options include Morris Jeff Community School, which offers preschool through high school and received a B-plus on the educational review site Niche, and New Orleans Charter Science and Math High School, which received a B. New Orleans Charter Science and Math High School was named a Standout High School by Niche in 2024 and draws residents to the neighborhood. “I’ve had clients want to move to this area because of that high school,” Tran says.
Lafitte Greenway and other neighborhood parks
“Lafitte Greenway is a major asset of this neighborhood,” Tran says. “It’s great for biking and walking, and you can take its trails to the French Quarter. Blue Bikes are set up on the corner, and they have yoga classes and other recreational activities.” In addition, there are several other community parks nearby. Playgrounds can be found at the Marais Playground and Lemann Park, and the historic Louis Armstrong Park, home to Congo Square and host of events like concerts and film screenings, is only blocks away. Nearby, the Rosenwald Recreation Center has basketball courts, exercise classes and a pool open in the summer.
