Description
Near the Mississippi River in the Black Pearl Neighborhood of New Orleans you will find a collection of shotgun houses, which were once home to the domestic workers who serviced the large stately homes on St. Charles Avenue. Now, these classics are home to a diverse collection of New Orleans residents and some are painted distinctively bright colors.
Part of my Black Peal Series. For additional information see Gallery Description.

Hi Catherine, I'm glad that you enjoyed my "Black Pearl" gallery. I love living in the neighborhood, and hope to add to this collection as time permits. The neighborhood is full of history, but it is very viable even today. Thanks for commenting and supporting my art. Cheri

Hi Byron, you are certainly correct! It's one of those "fun" shotguns in NOLA. Thanks for the V/F!
