The Neighborhood:
Bywater is a neighborhood of the city of New Orleans. A subdistrict of the Bywater District Area, its boundaries as defined by the City Planning Commission are: Florida Avenue to the north, the Industrial Canal to the east, the Mississippi River to the south, and the railroad tracks along Homer Plessy Way (formerly Press Street) to the west. Bywater is part of the Ninth Ward of New Orleans; but it is located along the natural levee of the Mississippi River, sparing the area from significant flooding. It includes part or all of Bywater Historic District, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[1]

During New Orleans Mardi Gras, the Society of Saint Anne marching krewe starts their procession on Mardi Gras morning in Bywater and gathers marchers as it travels through the French Quarter, ending at Canal Street. This walking parade of local residents, artists, and performers is preceded by the Bywater Bone Boys Social Aid and Pleasure Club (founded 2005), an early-rising skeleton krewe made up of writers, tattoo artists, painters, set designers, musicians, and numerous other pre–7 a.m. revelers.

After Hurricane Katrina, many survivors flocked to the area as it was less affected by the storm, due to the slightly higher elevation closer to the Mississippi river. Bywater became part of what was known as the "Sliver by the River," meaning neighborhoods that saw no flooding, including Faubourg Marigny, the French Quarter and Irish Channel neighborhoods, and parts of the lower Garden District including St. Charles Avenue.
The area now known as Bywater was mostly plantation land in the colonial era, with significant residential development beginning the first decade of the 19th century as part of what was known as "Faubourg Washington," part of the predominantly Francophone "downtown" section of New Orleans. Many people from France, Spain, and the French Caribbean settled here. During the century, it grew with both white Creoles of French and Spanish descent, as well as mixed-race Creoles of French, Spanish, African, and Native American descent. They were also joined by immigrants from Germany, Italy, and Ireland.

The Bywater is home to the site at which Homer Plessy was removed from an East Louisiana Railroad car for violating the separate car act, an event that resulted in the Plessy v. Ferguson case and the legal doctrine of "separate but equal." Today, a historical marker stands at the intersection of Press Street and Royal Street to commemorate the event.[6]

There was little distinction between this area and what became known as the Lower 9th Ward until the Industrial Canal was dredged in the early 20th century, dividing the two.

A generation knew the area as the "Upper 9th Ward," but as other parts of the 9th Ward above the Canal farther from the River became developed, a more specific name was needed. Inspired by the local telephone exchange designation of Bywater, which fit the neighborhood's proximity to the River and the Canal, the neighborhood was known as "Bywater" by the 1940s.

Real estate development and speculation surrounding the 1984 Louisiana World Exposition prompted many long-term French Quarter residents to move down river, at first into Marigny. By the late 1990s the bohemian, artistic type of communities such as were found in the French Quarter mid-20th century had spread to Bywater, and many long-neglected 19th-century houses began to be refurbished.

Bywater and neighboring Faubourg Marigny are two of the most colorful neighborhoods in the city. The architectural styles borrow heavily from the colonial French and Spanish and have elements of the Caribbean. This blending over the last three centuries has resulted in an architectural style unique to the city of New Orleans.

As the section of Bywater on the River side of St. Claude Avenue was one of the few portions of the 9th Ward to escape major flooding in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, it has made steady progress toward recovery, more so than many other parts of the city.

Pros & Cons: Consider Carefully and Plan Accordingly!!!
Our stay was decent. It started out horribly, but improved with time. Pros: - Fully enclosed and safe parking lot with a reserved space - Decent views from unit - Newer building - Close to the French Quarter Cons: - Abysmal check-in process. We were provided incorrect access codes to the building and garage. Property management had no back-up plan for getting us access to the building in the event that the codes didn't work. - Poor communication from property management. We had to call them EIGHT times before someone finally answered while we were attempting to gain building access with the incorrect access codes they provided. - Located in a poor/sketchy part of town. To be fair, everything close to the French Quarter is impoverished and sketchy (ghetto). - The unit is not near as clean and pristine as presented in the listing. The walls were filthy. The bedroom closet is used for storing cleaning supplies, such as mops, and it reeks. Much like Bourbon Street following a busy puked-filled night of partying. Pretty sure the mop has cleaned its fair share of vomit. - Minimal hot water capacity (shower turns cold in 6 min) When we arrived, the codes to the building and garage did not work. If it weren't for a resident sharing their code, we would have never gained access to our unit. The property management had no clue what to do. Told us to find a building security guard (doesn't even exist) for help. Check-in was a total s*** show, starting our trip with stress and chaos.

Great Getaway
The condo was exactly as it appeared in the pictures. Great location with a nice city view and many boats gliding effortlessly by on the Mississippi. We loved that. An easy Lyft ride away from the French Quarter. Communication was excellent whenever we were needing advice. Would highly recommend!

Decent but wouldn’t stay again
Went to drop off bags and the cleaning lady had her kids on the couch eating and watching Netflix, when we finally went to the place when she was done it wasn’t cleaned that well, and there was a blind missing from the main window in the living room so they had a piece of paper type thing taped in it that looked like complete trash that fell down twice, left 2 days early because of an emergency and wasn’t refunded those 2 days, all in all wouldn’t stay here again

Nice place too much of there stuff
The property is new and there is plenty of space, unfortunately the management has chosen to utilize much of the space where clothing, food, and toiletries would need to go with lots of their cleaning supplies. The cabinets in the kitchen that are not being used for dishes etc are full of bottles of cleaners and partial used paper products. The closets are either half full of linens, extra lamps or multiple vacuums, and mops. Luckily we brought (and left behind for the next traveler) hangers since there were maybe 6 total. There is nowhere to store clothing without emptying cabinets and vanities. If they need all the supplies I would suggest to consolidate them ( you don't need 7 partially used body wash and half use rolls of paper towels under the sinks) or offer dressers that don't hold the owners items
