With Bourbon Street being part of the news circuit lately, and criticism for why we even have a Bourbon Street, I thought it might be cool to share a little bit about it's history.
Bourbon Street is a 15-block-long stretch in the French Quarter neighborhood in New Orleans. The French Quarter was the original site of the then-French city of New Orleans way back in the 1700s. The streets of the Quarter (or, the Vieux Carre) were named after saints and predominant figures throughout history. Bourbon Street was aptly named after the then-ruling French House of Bourbon. The Quarter was a gritty, dynamic melting pot of cultures from Creole to Cajun to French and Spanish.
While the city expanded as the French sold the city to the Spanish, and then to America with the Louisiana Purchase, the Quarter remained a highly desireable area to live in well into the 1900s, surrounded by the culture and vices offered.
As Storyville (the red-light district) was built up in the adjacent neighborhood, live jazz music, dancing, drinking and so on became wildly popular despite being considered amoral. This spilled into the Quarter, with clubs opening up on Bourbon Street as a replacement when Storyville was shut down by 1919.
As the vaudeville culture evolved into pinup culture and burlesque, the demand for nightly shows continued to grow and Bourbon Street continued to grow in popularity. Famous nightclubs and restaurants moved in and Bourbon Street became an international spot for tourism.
