  • 400 City Park Ave, New Orleans, LA 70119, USA
    Founded in 1865 by the Grand Lodge of the State of Louisiana Free and Accepted Masons, the Masonic Cemetery expresses a character distinct from the Catholic cemeteries that dominate the city. It is known for its many unusual, elaborate tombs, a reputation due in part to the cemetery’s communal nature: members of lodges pooled resources to purchase large group tombs. Occupying two oddly shaped city blocks, the cemetery is triangular in plan, with Conti Street bisecting it. The triangular footprint of the bordering streets overlaid with the cemetery’s angular internal walkways mimics the Masonic emblem of the square and compass. Cast-iron picket fences enclose its two distinct sections, while oak allées line its northern and western edges. Tombs are compactly arranged in rows parallel to Bienville Street, with a wide, paved promenade cutting through the center to provide access to smaller walkways between rows.

  • Hurricane Katrina Memorial, New Orleans, Louisiana, United States
    On the former site of Charity Hospital’s paupers’ field, this ominous but oddly affecting circle of tombs holds the bodies of 85 unclaimed victims of the 2005 levee failures and the names of others who perished. It’s an unfussy place that’s easily missed, the better for contemplative solitude, perhaps. Surrounded by a storm-shaped series of pathways, the memorial does its duty in giving one substantial pause.

We only entered one cemetery and the tour guide, Bob the undertaker, spent about 45 minutes just talking about the masons and the Shriners, etc. etc. etc. it was truly the most boring tour I’ve ever been on and that sentiment was shared by the entire group

Where do I start? The tour bus accident? And then The tour guide leaving us on the corner of the street after the accident because he was late to his next tour. He said so sorry but I’m late! It was 10:23 right before the accident and he was late due to him pulling over to talk (rant) nonstop about Katrina. While I do feel for him and the tragedy that occurred, it was a bit too much and lasted too long. Not to mention the lack of facts regarding the city or even Katrina for that matter.. it was nonstop incoherent rambling
