New Orleans West Bank Living and Real Estate News: Gretna LA Neighborhoods | A Tour of Park Place Subdivision

Gretna LA Neighborhoods | A Tour of Park Place Subdivision

Developed in the 1980s, the Park Place subdivision is located in Jefferson Parish, in Gretna, Louisiana.

A collection of condos and single family homes make up this community of well kept residences. More than 20 years after the first owner moved in, the neighborhood has matured, with many homes boasting mature shade trees and some beautiful landscaping. Katrina did quite a bit of wind damage in the area, so many of the homes have newer roofs and updates that continue to keep the houses in demand.

Lisa - This is a very informative post about Gretna neighborhoods. If I were moving to New Orleans, i would want an experienced agent to put me in a safe area away from floods and crime.

Wonderful post Lisa. I loved the driving tour. These prices seem unreal to me from up here in MD and No. VA, but good for local folks in LA.

Thanks everyone - this tour was a request by a facebook fan, so I thought I'd share it here too.  I have no clue why a neighborhood profile was featured, though.

Leslie, I'm not good at long.  Short and sweet tends to be my writing style :)

Larry, thanks.  I grew up in the same area I live in now, so I know the neighborhoods like the back of my hand.

Lenn, thank you - our real estate looks like bargain basement pricing next to the East Coast.

Michael, thanks!

Russell, I didn't invent the wheel, I just swiped it :)

Karen, try it...I hated the first few I did, but I'm getting more comfortable with them.  You'll note that you don't hear ME though.  I'm not to that point yet.

Chris, you are too kind.

Sherry, not sure what you mean about the community reports???

Jeff, HA!  Says the man who has video down pat ;)

Renee, you will love it, I promise!

Paul, I can't have you getting too far ahead of me.
