    We Live Here: Algiers - A Village on the River

    Metadata Updated: January 13, 2026

    We live here in Algiers, New Orleans' second oldest neighborhood, established in 1719 just across the Mississippi from the French Quarter. Our lives are shaped by the river – historically serving as the port's crucial "support side" for shipbuilding (since 1819), dry docks, and railroads. We also bear the painful history of being a holding area for enslaved Africans. Today, the river defines us through the stunning views of the Mississippi and the enduring connection with The French Quarter via the Algiers Ferry, running continuously since 1827. This gives us our unique village feeling, a world away, yet minutes from downtown.
