Bywater: The Creative Edge of New Orleans
Just downriver from the Faubourg Marigny, Bywater has spent the last decade becoming one of the most talked-about neighborhoods in New Orleans — and for good reason. What was once a quiet, working-class river neighborhood has emerged as a magnet for artists, chefs, entrepreneurs, and buyers who want to be somewhere that feels alive and still evolving. It’s the kind of neighborhood where the coffee shop doubles as a gallery and the corner bar has been there since before anyone can remember.
