When I lived in New Orleans I worked next door to the St. Thomas projects just off Jackson Ave. This was back in the 90s, and they were as bad or worse than any of the larger ones.
So there used to be a housing project in the garden district? Wow. What was magazine street like back then?

It was closer to Tchoup, but magazine, at the end, wasn’t what it is post Katrina.

Getting rid of the St Thomas was the catalyst that led to what Magazine Street is today.

In that area it was pretty sketchy. But like most neighborhoods in N.O., one block could be okay and the next could be crap. The farther from downtown the better it got. This was in the early to mid 90s.
