The Historic New Orleans Collection has plenty of photographs of this type, semi-random views down streets all over the city, punctuated with cars parked along the curb. Here, we’ve picked two from September 1955: above, looking down South Rampart where it crosses Clio Street, and below, looking down Magazine Street where it crosses Valance Street. What do you see here?
