Why Live in Holy Cross

Holy Cross in New Orleans, named after a former boys' Catholic school, stands out in the Lower Ninth Ward with its unique landmarks like the Doullut Steamboat Houses and various museums. The neighborhood has undergone significant changes since Hurricane Katrina, with new homes, services, and parks revitalizing the area. The community is now more diverse, featuring a mix of ethnicities and backgrounds. Residents have access to new recreation facilities, including a library branch and an indoor recreation center on St. Claude Avenue. The Sankofa Wetland Nature Trail, located just over a mile north, offers a peaceful retreat. While commercial activity is limited, it is gradually increasing, with nearby Bywater providing additional dining and shopping options, such as the popular Elizabeth's brunch spot. Local amenities include Mercede's Place, a longstanding bar known for its happy hour specials and breakfast offerings. Community involvement is strong, with residents participating in events organized by the Holy Cross Neighborhood Association and cultural institutions like the TEP Center. Housing primarily consists of single-family cottages and bungalows, with ongoing but slow-paced revitalization efforts. Public transportation has improved, although the St. Claude Avenue Bridge poses some challenges for mobility. Public school students attend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Charter School, which offers small class sizes. Despite some concerns about crime and occasional flooding, Holy Cross remains a resilient and evolving neighborhood.
