St. Anthony offers a relaxed, residential rhythm within New Orleans, where broad porches, mature oaks, and mid‑century cottages create a welcoming streetscape. Tucked in Gentilly, it shares borders and community ties with nearby neighborhoods like Filmore, Milneburg, and Gentilly Terrace, giving residents plenty of local options for parks, schools, and everyday conveniences.
Weekend plans come easy here. City Park’s 1,300 acres of trails, playgrounds, and cultural gems are minutes away; explore it all via the official portals at New Orleans City Park. Higher education and year‑round events anchor the lakefront nearby, thanks to the University of New Orleans, with athletics, performances, and lectures just a short drive or bike ride from home. Elysian Fields and Franklin avenues streamline commutes to downtown while keeping you close to the lake breezes and green spaces that define Gentilly living.
Families appreciate the neighborhood’s access to respected schools. The selective-admission Benjamin Franklin High School consistently ranks among the state’s best, and the Hynes Charter Schools – UNO campus adds a sought‑after K–8 option tied to the university corridor. Sidewalks, pocket parks, and active civic associations round out a community that prizes both quiet blocks and easy city access.
