Two-thirds of the French Quarter structures date from the first half of the 19th century, the most prolific decade being the 1820s, when the city was growing at an amazing rate. Records show that not a single Spanish architect was operating in the city by that time; only French and American were, the latter gradually replacing the former as Creole style was being replaced by Greek revival architecture in the 1830s and 1840s.Spanish administrators, in the late 18th century, did enforce strict building codes, requiring brick construction to avoid another fire; but the Spaniards did not directly influence much of the Quarter's architecture. Spanish influence came indirectly with the form of Creole style, which mixed French and Spanish architecture, with some elements from the Caribbean. From its south end to the intersection with Claiborne Avenue, Canal Street is extremely dense with buildings. Each building, being no larger than half a New Orleans block, has a notably intricate facade. All of these buildings contrast each other in style, from Greek revival, Art Nouveau, and Art Deco, to Renaissance Colonial, and one of Gothic architecture. Also there is Post-modern, Mid-century modern, Streamline Moderne, and other types of 20th-century architecture. However, most of these buildings have lost their original interiors because of hurricane damage and business renovations. Jackson Square took its current form in the 1850s: the Cathedral was redesigned, mansard rooftops were added to the Cabildo and to the Presbytere, and the Pontalba apartments were built on the sides of the square, adorned with iron work balconies. The popularity of wrought iron or cast iron balconies in New Orleans began during this period.
- Pleasant and vibrant image of the upper square just after the brief rainfall that often graces New Orleans.
- This image was photographed in the French Quarter of New Orleans, one of the most fascinating cities in the world.
- Image captured by the renowned photographer and artist Mark Pritchard
- Unique filtering and diffusion techniques produce vibrant colors and enhance the iconic image for a truly unique piece of art.
