The Mansion at 1227 Esplanade Avenue is a rare New Orleans example of the Greek Revival architectural style. Built in 1850 and lovingly restored in 1985, the architectural integrity of this historic gem has been preserved.

Details such as the wrought iron fence with its filigreed gate, iron balconies, a large front porch overlooking Esplanade Avenue and a secluded Creole-style tropical courtyard with palm and banana trees combine to create a timeless atmosphere redolent of the Old South. [ Picture Gallery ]
