VCPORA - Vieux Carre Property Owners, Residents and Associates, Inc.

At Home in the Vieux Carre
Friday, April 15 5:30 - 7 825 Royal Street

This Friday will mark our second-to-last At Home in the Vieux Carré, and we’re delighted to be returning to the place where it all started: 825 Royal Street, the home of David Speights. Tucked away behind a series of Creole cottages is this enormous, lush courtyard and maisonette.

And as a special treat, writer R. Stephanie Bruno will be on hand to sign copies of her new book, New Orleans Streets: A Walker's Guide to New Orleans Architecture.

Admission is $10/non-members, $5/members, and FREE to those who join that evening! And in addition to wine, we'll be offering a delicious concoction courtesy of Bar Tonique.

We're continually grateful to our sponsors, French Quarter Realty and First NBC, for making this series possible.

At Home in the Vieux Carre - FRIDAY!

What a treat! Antiques collector extraordinaire Peter Patout welcomes us into his gracious Bourbon Street home this Friday evening. Guests will be able to see all three units on the property - two in the double shotgun, and one in the maison principale, in the rear. You'll also be treated to a house full of stunning Louisiana antiques, including a Barjon piece, plus the intimate courtyard. So join us to get a glimpse of a home that was featured in Elegance and Decadence, one of the great New Orleans style books, and to enjoy those always-delicious craft cocktails from Bar Tonique.
