Citizens of New Orleans 9th Ward feel a proper sense of love for our town’s best ward. Do you see people walking around New Orleans wearing 15th Ward Strong shirts? No. I’ve never seen a 4th Ward t-shirt. Not once. When you live in the 9th Ward the feeling of community is so strong it’s hard to quantify.

Pull up stumps and move to the 9th. You’ll be glad ya did.

Deslonde Street is perhaps best known as being the one-time home of the 9th Ward’s most notorious cockfighter. We wish we knew his name but that particular fact is lost to the sands of time.
