The Beacon at South Market - Unclaimed

New Orleans’ Central Business District sits just upriver from the French Quarter, between the Mississippi River and the Warehouse District, with a humid subtropical climate and warm weather for much of the year. Lafayette Square and the St. Charles streetcar line lend historic character to its high-rise and office-lined streets; the nearby riverfront offers open-air paths and views. Restaurants, cafés, hotel bars and galleries create options for dining and evenings out, while Canal Place and the shops along Canal Street add retail choices. The Contemporary Arts Center and Ogden Museum of Southern Art are nearby cultural anchors. Streetcars, buses and the regional Union Passenger Terminal serve the area, and many errands can be handled on foot. The Central Business District’s median rent is $4,305 per month, with a typical range of $1,078 to $22,012.
