Sightseeing
Go to their website and check out the streetcar lines nearest our home.
Google the RTSA streetcar line routes. The two closest ones to my house are the Carrollton Ave Line at Claiborne and Carrollton that will turn into the St Charles Ave line taking you past Audubon Park, the mansions in the Garden District and you end up at Canal Street Downtown and at the French Quarter. 1.2 miles from my house with a 4 minute drive (there is ample parking by the streetcar line) or a nice 21 minute walk. The second is located at Canal Street and Jefferson Davis, which is only about 6 minute drive were there is ample street parking and you can hop on the streetcar taking you to Downtown, French Quarter and Warehouse District.
