With exposed brick, chic interiors, and an unforgettable city view, this penthouse in New Orleans is the ideal inner-city getaway. Not to mention within walking distance to most of the city's hotspots. You're just steps away from trendy eateries, bluesy jazz clubs, and historic sites. With windows on both sides, light bursts into this open penthouse. Waking up in the morning to that industrial skyline is a pretty good way to start the day. The light invites you outside onto your private terrace, where the panoramic view really comes into focus. As this home is in the Central Business District you get a unique New York-style view. Spend plenty of time out here, taking in the view and sipping on your morning coffee or afternoon cocktail. Despite its name, this area definitely isn't all business. In less than a five-minute walk, you'll be in the heart of the district, where you'll find 19th-century townhouses, cafes, upscale shops, and museums. Plus, you're just a twelve-minute walk from the famous Mercedes-Benz Superdome. For exploring the iconic French Quarter, you're less than a fifteen-minute walk away. Gape at the architecture and visit the many museums and architecture. Further into the French Quarter, you'll... find the oldest market of its kind in the United States. The historic French Market has everything from local handicrafts to gourmet foods, you could spend hours exploring this sprawling market. When it comes to nighttime, the colours of New Orleans turn from pastel to neon. The iconic Bourbon Street, less than a ten-minute walk away, is the place to be for jazz clubs, Cajun eateries, and plenty of bars. The vibrant Frenchmen Street is also close by – a six-minute drive or a thirty-minute walk away. You'll hear it before you see it. On Frenchmen Street, the music takes the reigns. Street performers, jazz bars, reggae bars, rock bars, you name it. Sip on a Sazerac, take it all in and you'll understand why they call New Orleans the Big Easy.

About New Orleans
New Orleans is one lively city – whether we’re talking food, candy-coloured architecture or nightlife, there’s nowhere else in the United States – or even the world – quite like this Louisianan cultural mecca. You’ll find indigenous cuisine here that hybridizes Caribbean, African and European influences – so embrace your inner hedonist and dive head first into Gumbo, beignets and po’ boys. It’s a city where jazz is as prevalent...
