Gentilly Woods Neighborhood

“Gentilly Woods and Pontchartrain Park neighborhoods are separated from the Gentilly Terrace community by railroad tracks to its west and from the Pines Village communities by the Inner Navigation Harbor Canal to the east, giving the area a picture of isolation. The majority of homes are bricked, built for single family usage. It is one of the neighborhoods of predominately African Americans, and the majority of the housing units are owner-occupied (Census 2000).” [Read more in the Neighborhood Snapshot]
