Life in Old Louisiana (1830-1850)
This sort of documentary was made in 1941 (as stated in the opening titles). This short film depicts the culture of old Louisiana, including such aspects as slavery on cotton and cane plantations, the prevailing French language, Mississippi River trade, education, religion and music.
The film focuses on the elite and (wealthy) white families, such as plantation owners and business men. Sadly enough the delicate matters e.g. about how coloured people were treated in those days, are apparently insignificant. This documentary however (even when it's not really an accurate survey of history) might still be an interesting image of the time.

Old U.S. Mint - New Orleans, Louisiana.
The only building in America to have served both as a U.S. and Confederate Mint was built in 1835 during the presidency of Andrew Jackson who had advocated for its establishment in order to help finance development of the nation's western frontier. Renowned architect William Strickland designed the building using the then-popular Greek Revival style. Minting commenced in 1838. In 1861, when Louisiana seceded from the union, state authorities seized the property and transferred it to the Confederate Army. For a short time it was used to mint Confederate currency and to house Confederate troops. This ended when New Orleans was occupied by federal forces. Following the Civil War, during the period of Reconstruction, minting of U.S. coins resumed. Minting operations ceased in 1909 and, for the next 57 years, the Mint served a variety of official purposes. In 1966 the landmark was transferred to the state and in 1981 opened to the public as a State Museum site.

The 1850 House Inn & Tavern
The Comfort of an Inn ~ The Hospitality of a Pub. The 1850 House Inn & Tavern would be recognizable to visitors of times past, not only by its brick exterior but also due to the loving preservation of the Inn's original old wood and brick in the nook-and-cranny filled floor plan. Inside the twelve guest rooms- which includes a two bedroom suite- await fine custom linens, large flat screens, WiFi and beverage coolers. Views of the Rondout River and of Main Street are accented by the carefully selected photographic enlargements that function as gigantic windows into the Rosendale. Located just 90 miles from New York City, the Inn is readily accessible by car, train or bus and is at the center of Ulster County's historic places, arts, music, dance and easy access to hiking, biking, kayaking, and more.
The Cabildo: History of New Orleans
The Cabildo took its name from the governing body who met there — the Illustrious Cabildo, or city council. This was the site of the Louisiana Purchase transfer ceremonies in 1803, and continued to be used by the New Orleans city council until the mid 1850s.
On the second floor is an outstanding exhibit on the birth of Rock 'N Roll in New Orleans.
New Orleans' Hidden Black History (part 1 of 4)
Source:
New Orleans has been the backdrop of many dark chapters in American history, but perhaps none so shocking as the slave rebellion of 1811. We will explore the history of America's largest slave revolt with author Daniel Rasmussen who organized his research in his book, American Uprising: The Untold Story About America's Largest Slave Revolt.
The New Orleans African-American Museum of Art, Culture and History, located in Faubourg Treme, is helping to keep the stories of America's oldest and continuous black community alive. Established in 2000, former executive director John Hankins tells us that the Museum has held the mission to preserve, interpret and promote the African American cultural heritage of New Orleans, with a particular empasis on the Treme community.
Le Musee de F.P.C. is a beautiful house museum that honors the legacy of New Orleans' Free People of Color. History will echo off the walls and along the wooden floor boards as we walk through this Greek Revival house in Upper Treme with Beverly McKinna. The Museum displays a hidden history of people whose stories have been complied in storage boxes and on cemetery headstones but their undeniable achievements serve to rewrite the conventional narrative of New Orleans' history.
The rich and varied culture of New Orleans is seen in its food, music, traditions and architecture. History professor, Dr. Mary Mitchell, says that New Orleans has its own rhythm and energy that is influenced by Africans, Native Americans and European settlers and she gave us a taste of New Orleans as we soaked up the world flavors in the French Quarter.

167 Eberhard Faber, The Early History of New Orleans
The French established New Orleans and the greater colony of Louisiana in 1717. By 1840, New Orleans had become the 3rd largest city in the United States. How did that happen?
How did New Orleans transform from a sleepy, minor French outpost into a large and important early American city with a thriving, bustling port?
Eberhard “Lo” Faber, an assistant professor of history at Loyola University, New Orleans and the author of Building the Land of Dreams: New Orleans and the Transformation of Early America, leads us on an exploration of the early history of New Orleans.

A few notes from my research:
Fla Blvd was origainally called Shell Road before it was paved, The shells made it easy for horse drawn carriages to travel on.
Leaving Downtown BR proper North Blvd changed names Jefferson Hwy, (later this section changed Names again to Goverment) it ended at S Acadian. Acadian was then was a short section of Clay Cut. The 2 road maps (one drawn in the late 1800's & one in 1920) are hard overlay
Clay Cut was called clay gut road, when it was discovered it was a path that wild oxen traveled on. Looking at the old hand drawn map lower Clay cut changed names to Hope Villa road at the intersection of Denham Springs Rd (now Old Hammond hwy). Denham Springs Rd was origainally named Bentons Ferry Rd.
Before it was named Perkins Rd it intersected Starring South of the LR&N RR tracks then went to the mouth of Bayou Manchac on the Miss river, Later Perkins was extended to Kleinpeter Ville at Highland Rd crossing. Perkins Rd crossed the RR tracks 5 times before heading S into Ascenion Parish
