1440 Pauger Street

One of Jean-Louis Dolliole’s true masterpieces, this house, built in 1819 or 1820 on the corner of Pauger Street where it now meets Bourbon Street, employs the Spanish colonial architecture of flat, sloped tile roofs for which Dolliole was famous. Art historians and scholars of architecture hold this cottage in high regard as a landmark of early New Orleans architecture.
