Lake Vista of New Orleans

This area is a recent fascination of mine. The best planned community I have come across is right here in town. Parks, pedestrian lanes on the shore of Lake Ponchartrain. The rear of houses face the street allowing all homes to face the common green spaces they share.

The top of the Methodist Church emerges through the trees.


A playset in someone's yard facing the park.

A playpost within the central node of churches, light commercial, some multifamily housing.
