Marie in 1788, is a vibrant neighborhood known for its historic buildings, attractions, and excellent dining options. As the main financial center since the 1830s, it remains a hub of business and culture, featuring City Hall and a rotating collection of sculptures along Poydras Street. The neighborhood's architecture includes American Townhouse and Greek Revival styles, with many commercial properties converted into single- or multifamily homes.
