The Crescent City is well known for its rich multi-cultural history, endless supply
of
festivities, and reputation as the birthplace of jazz. Visitors often make a beeline to
the French Quarter; however, there's plenty of magic to be found off the beaten path.
By Rosy Alvarez
For over 300 years, the city of New Orleans has been recognized as a melting pot for
Spanish, Irish, French, African, Caribbean, and Indigenous citizens. e city is best
known for famed events that reflect its diverse DNA such as Mardi Gras, the French
Quarter fest, and the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. e allure of staying in
the historical French Quarter with a picturesque balcony enchants visitors from all
over the world. Yet a mere walking distance from the French Quarter, lies the central
business district where visitors will find quieter streets, quaint restaurants, and remnants
of antiquated New Orleans. One of those portals to the past can be experienced at
Copper Vine Wine Pub & Inn. What began as a restaurant has since expanded into a
newly renovated boutique inn featuring 11 guest rooms, private guest dining areas, and
rooms brimming with luxe modern amenities in one of the few remaining historically
landmarked buildings in the CBD.
