Gretna’s Westbank area includes a vast swath of southern Louisiana land both west and south of the Mississippi River that stretches from Gretna to Avondale. This stretch of residential, commercial, and green space has something for everyone. Westbank rentals range from affordable single-family homes in laid-back neighborhoods to convenient apartments near the heart of Gretna. Westbank residents also enjoy close proximity to Highway 90, the area’s major thoroughfare that makes heading into New Orleans easy. Bay Segnette State Park is just south of Westbank, providing acres of green space for hiking, fishing, and more.
