Welcome to Broadmoor

Broadmoor is a centrally located New Orleans neighborhood that transformed from marshland into a vibrant residential area in the early 20th century. Its name likely derives from its broad, low-lying terrain, once a 12-acre lake connected to Bayou St. John. The neighborhood boasts a mix of architectural styles, including Spanish Colonial Revival and Craftsman bungalows. After significant flooding during Hurricane Katrina, residents rallied to rebuild, preserving landmarks like the Rosa F. Keller Library and Community Center. Today, Broadmoor is known for its strong community spirit, diverse population, and active neighborhood association.
