Metairie

Humans first inhabited Metairie after the Mississippi River flowed through it, leaving behind natural levees--as well as Bayou Metairie--along Metairie Road. After the surrounding swampland was drained, other areas were developed, and in 2020, Metairie became the sixth-largest census designated place in the nation.

A propos de l'auteur

After writing three books about Metairie, author Catherine Campanella revisits her hometown with the knowledge that what is depicted here as "present" will one day be "past." Sources for this book include the Historic New Orleans Collection, the Louisiana Digital Library, and the author's collection.
