Lonely Planet review

For anyone with a special interest in the architecture of New Orleans, this center is a great place to stop to get a sense for the lay of the land. The PRC is a nonprofit organization whose chief mission is to restore and revitalize New Orleans' historic neighborhoods. Its headquarters, in the expansive Leeds-Davis building, has a street-level museum. The display is modest, but manages to impart key information in a very straightforward manner.

Grab some free walking tour maps and literature on virtually every part of town. The engaging staff can provide infomration on everything from cycling routes to how to secure low-interest loans to buy and restore your dream shotgun house. Upstairs, a library contains volumes on local history and architecture.
