New Orleans: Mardis Gras 2006 The City Our hotel, the Bourbon Orleans, was in the heart of the French Quarter on the corner of Bourbon Street and Orleans Street, just a few blocks from the French Market. The Quarter appeared to remain relatively unscathed but we saw many boarded-up buildings and "help wanted" signs were everywhere. We hiked east and north of the Quarter to the edge of the real flooding and saw a lot more damage. For a larger photograph, click on the small picture below.
