Why Live in Bywater

Bywater is a historic New Orleans neighborhood with an eclectic, artsy feel. Here, brightly painted Creole cottages, shotgun homes and Craftsman-style bungalows from the 1700s line narrow, walkable streets. Homes needing light work can sometimes be found under about $200,000, while move-in-ready houses more often range from roughly $500,000 to well over $1 million, and because the neighborhood is on the National Register of Historic Places, exterior changes typically go through the Historic District Landmarks Commission. Nearby restaurants include Bratz Y’all! Bistro, Pizza Delicious, Bywater Bakery, Bacchanal and Elizabeth’s, along with galleries and interactive art experiences like JAMNOLA that highlight New Orleans artists. Crescent Park runs along the Mississippi River with a raised promenade, picnic areas, a dog park and reused industrial wharves that host pop-up art shows and fitness classes. Community gardens and small parks, including Press Street Garden and Mickey Markey Park, add spots for neighbors to gather and spend time outside. Day to day, most people get around by car because transit is limited and the neighborhood sits downriver from many job centers, which can make commutes slower. Biking is a popular alternative on the flat grid of streets, though active freight train lines on the western edge of the neighborhood can cause occasional delays at crossings.
