| This track along Brooklyn Avenue in Algiers, Louisiana was first laid in 1889 by the New Orleans, Fort Jackson & Grand Isle Railroad, which was building south along the west bank of the Mississippi River. At one time the railroad’s depot and station were just beyond the vegetation in the distance. After several reorganizations and mergers this track was owned by the New Orleans & Gulf Coast when this photo was taken. These two homes at 709-711 (brown) and 705-707 were typical double-shotgun designs, with an addition on the rear for indoor bathrooms. |
