An "Urban Bohemian" New Orleans Loft Is Bursting With Books and Art -- House Tour

Name: Nathalie Simon Location: Bywater -- New Orleans, Louisiana Size: 1,350 square feet Years lived in: 1 year, renting When Nathalie returned home to New Orleans five years ago, she settled into a life she loved in the French Quarter. She walked everywhere, knew all of her neighbors, and felt like she was a part of a community. "It was like living in New York City or Paris. Each 'neighborhood'--even two blocks over--had its own characteristics and culture," she says.
