Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

5452 Douglas Street presents an oversized development lot sized 47 by 160 feet. The property’s standout feature is the view potential from an upper level: going up two stories allows an outlook over the levee toward the Mississippi River.

The lot offers space to do it right with options for either a single-family home with outdoor space and off-street parking or a two-unit investment property. The location is described as minutes from the French Quarter, with a short drive across the canal to Bywater’s coffee shops and restaurants, and convenient access to the CBD.

Bring your architect and plan for a design that takes advantage of the elevated river view. Off-street parking and outdoor space are specifically supported by the suggested residential concepts for this site.

  • River‑view potential from an upper floor above the levee, overlooking the Mississippi River
