    I got such a kick out of this. I’m from San Juan, lived in and around old San Juan half my life, and when I visited New Orleans it felt a lot like home.
    The flat roof thing was particularly interesting to me. In old San Juan that’s the standard, but it’s so impractical because we get a lot of rain as well. During a history class, I learned that it was the standard to have a pitched roof for the first half of the *18th century here, then transitioned to mostly flat due to the threat of fires. So that’s another thing our cities have in common.

    I was in New Orleans on a business trip in the very late 1990s. I hit the French Quarter, saw the private gardens through the gates, and was educated a bit mire on the shotguns. I stayed at a bed and breakfast on Royal Street, east of Elysian Fields. A kind homeowner described their shotgun as a fusion of American(Victorian embellishments), Spanish (wrought iron), and African (the home design itself).

    Can't wait to be back for Halloween! The architecture is one of my favorite things about NOLA. Is there a tour of the Marigny I missed? For a different tour, what about hidden gems? Maybe some locally owned places that do not have the notoriety they deserve. Women, BIPOC, or LBGTQ+ owned?

    Love this new video! I've been waiting for one on just the architecture, thank you! I know y'all like feedback so here's my two cents: Not really liking the new background music you added. Part of why your videos are so cool is that you feel like you're there walking around. The background music takes away from that and just feels like another canned production. I'd rather hear the street sounds like all your other videos. The other thing I hope you will start to do is tell us the street you're on when talking about specific buildings. I'm always trying to look at landmarks and figure out what intersection he's on so I know where to go next time I visit. Or just pan up and show the street sign as you walk around. Just my two cents... As always, I love what you all are doing and I'm always telling people to check out your channel. Keep up the great work!

    It’s important to make a note here since the term Creole is used frequently in this video. Many people across the US, the world and even many in Louisiana do not know what Creole truly means in Louisiana.
    Louisiana Creole = the local, Louisiana-born people of colonial Louisiana descent (of any race except Native American) and their culture, architecture and cuisine.
    I myself am a white New Orleans Creole and I think making a clear note of what Creole is in Louisiana will clear up any confusion because it’s a term loaded with confusion for many that do not know it’s correct meaning.
