Central Business District

After a late lunch at Cochon, we caught a couple of the old warehouse signs, the real CBD gems.


Dixie Machine Welding & Metal Works, Tchoupitoulas
A classic New Orleans summer afternoon sky, to boot.
Interior signage

Mother-in-Law Lounge, S. Claiborne at edge of Treme.
Aunt Tiki’s on Decatur. Just your forever typical Louisiana video poker neon (& a sign photographer of NOLA).
Haydel’s Bakery
Haydel’s Bakery on Jefferson Hwy. Remember in October for my birthday, the most divine New Orleans Doberge cakes.
Bud’s Broiler
Bud’s Broiler, Jefferson Hwy. The very best local burger chain in New Orleans.
First Mount Calvary Baptist Church vs. McDonald’s
Signage juxtaposition or the original American pit stop, salvation and fries to-go. Just off S. Claiborne.
OK Storage Co.
On St. Andrew Street, just a half block up from St. Charles Avenue. One of our favorite signs, very close to one of our favorite brunch spots–Trolley Stop Cafe.
Could you go wrong with such a winning kitty graphic?
Just off S. Claiborne
Club Indasia, 4th Street.
Just off S. Claiborne on Willow Street.
