McDonogh 16

Originally built in 1910 as a public school, McDonogh 16 has been transformed into a distinctive apartment community in New Orleans' historic Seventh Ward. This beautifully restored three-story building now offers 58 one-bedroom apartments that maintain the structure's classic architectural elements, including tall windows and exposed brick. Built in 2014, each apartment features fully-equipped kitchens, central air conditioning and heating, and range/oven appliances. The property's preserved historic details, from its grand staircases to its decorative cornices, complement the updated living spaces with well-appointed bathrooms and comfortable bedrooms. Residents have access to secure parking and are conveniently located near several educational institutions, including Homer A. Plessy Community School and Mary McLeod Bethune Elementary. The building's thoughtful renovation preserves its historic New Orleans character while providing comfortable contemporary living spaces in the culturally rich Seventh Ward.
