New Orleans, 1959

Our old standby Charles W. Cushman had a few cities that he visited on multiple occasions, one of them being New Orleans. We’ve seen photos of his from the city from 1951, and we also see that he went back in 1959 to wander around, largely through the city’s residential neighborhoods. In these selected photos from Poydras Street, Dumaine Street, the Jackson Square, and Annunciation Street, we see that the cars parked along the streets tell as much of a story as does the city’s famed architecture. What do you see here?
