One of Bourbon Street’s oldest live Jazz clubs is dedicated to the preservation of “America’s classical music”
If taking pictures of people — especially musicians — is your favorite kind of photography, New Orleans is the city to be in, and Frenchmen Street is the place to go. This stretch of the city (centered in the 500 and 600 blocks of Frenchmen), which lies in the Faubourg Marigny, just across Esplanade from the French Quarter, is arguably the coolest neighborhood in the world. By day, it’s a brightly-painted street scene, chockablock with sidewalk cafes populated by cool people, artists making art, buskers making music, and general liveliness.
