New Orleans is so architecturally beloved because we are good about building at a human scale. Even our grandest buildings, like the cathedral, are relatively quaint. It’s the consistency with which the city is beautiful that makes her noteworthy.

Economics has always been considered a subset of ethics. The enlightenment & subsequent capital L liberalism(not to be conflated with progressivism) changed this. Now it’s considered a β€œscience”.

New Orleans and Santa Fe have the greatest ratio of population to general aura/fame of any American cities.

There are cities in Southeast Asia with 5+ million people that the average American has never even heard of. But go anywhere, and everybody knows about little ole’ 350k population New Orleans.

New Orleans is like the Hotel California. You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave.

People leave, but they always find their way back. There is an almost spiritual force that sinks its claws into you.

Did you know that Muriel’s Restaurant in the French Quarter perpetually reserves and meticulously sets up a table for the ghost of a man that died upstairs in 1814? STORY BELOW🧡

Is New Orleans a β€œshoes inside” or β€œno shoes inside” culture?

@TallRomanStatue what makes a place, but especially a building, feel spooky? I know there’s the cliche of the Victorian mansion on the hill. Is it that horror stories came en vogue in that time? Or is there something inherent in the architecture @CSandbatch
