Maison LeMonnier in the French Quarter

I lived for years across from the first skyscraper in New Orleans French Quarter. 

Some pix and history.

Dr. LeMonnier’s home, on Royal St. in the French Quarter in New Orleans, referred to as “New Orleans’ first skyscraper” which towers three stories high. In the foreground are the elaborate cast-iron gallery railings of LaBranche House. It is one of the most photographed residences in New Orleans.
