This light-filled historic warehouse was once a 1920s automobile showroom. Today it’s home to this stylish apartment, which retains many of the building’s original features – just in swankier form. Think high ceilings, wire glass windows, exposed brickwork, industrial-style ductwork and concrete floors, all softened with reclaimed wood stairs and doors. There’s a large and comfortable living area for relaxing evenings and lazy breakfasts, and cosy bedrooms tucked upstairs for a peaceful night’s sleep. You’ll need your rest if you’re planning on exploring the buzzing nightlife and bars of New Orleans’ Bourbon Street, which is just a 15-minute walk away. Spend the days wandering historical streets and sampling the unique Cajun cuisine. Return home and enjoy a drink on the communal rooftop patio overlooking the city. Then dive back into the birthplace of jazz at one of the many lively clubs in the French Quarter.
