The Timeless Elegance of Nathaniel Russell House

Getting There

• Walking

  If you're already in the French Quarter, you can easily walk to the Nathaniel Russell House. Start at the intersection of East Bay Street and Broad Street. Head south on East Bay Street for two blocks until you reach Tradd Street. Turn left onto Tradd Street and continue for one block until you reach Meeting Street. Turn right onto Meeting Street, and you will find the Nathaniel Russell House at 51 Meeting St on your left. It will take you approximately 10-15 minutes to walk from the center of the French Quarter.

• Bicycle

  If you prefer cycling, you can rent a bike from one of the local bike rental shops in the French Quarter. Once you have your bike, head towards East Bay Street and follow the same route as walking: ride south on East Bay Street, turn left onto Tradd Street, and then right onto Meeting Street. The Nathaniel Russell House will be on your left. Ensure that you have a bike lock to secure your bike while you visit, as there may be bike racks available nearby.

You can take the 20 or 30 buses towards the downtown area (check schedules for exact routes).
