115+ Properties located in 20 Neighborhoods in New Orleans includingLakeview, West End, Navarre, Mid City, Holy Cross, Hollygrove, Bywater, Central City, Dixon, Lower Ninth Ward, McDonough, Seventh Ward, St. Claude, St. Roch, Village De Lest, West Lake Forest, Milan, Bayou St. John, Desire and Gert Town.
Bidding to Start at $1,000 per Property
The New Orleans Redevelopment Authority (NORA), in its effort to catalyze neighborhood redevelopment, will auction a number of Road Home and NORA-owned properties in Orleans Parish. The single day, live auction is intended to compliment continuing neighborhood recovery and to respect the uniqueness of New Orleans’ neighborhoods.
The properties included in the auction are generally located in neighborhoods that have seen strong redevelopment following the storm and have few Road Home properties (appx. 1-10). The sale of the remaining Road Home properties in these neighborhoods will strengthen an already strong private real estate market.
Alternatively neighborhoods that saw a significant number of homes sold to the Road Home benefit from NORA’s other disposition programs including Phase II sales and Requests for Proposals (RFPs). Such programs typically require purchasers to build at a large scale or for owner occupancy. These programs, developed in partnership with neighborhood organizations, aim to stabilize impacted communities and to help rebuild neighborhood real estate markets.
Additional properties with unusual characteristics and in high demand for redevelopment are also included in the auction. For a complete list of properties of historic significance, see “Property Auction List” and “Catalogs” for details.
All properties were screened for Lot Next Door eligibility and offered to the Lot Next Door eligible neighbors where they exist. Additional notification will be provided to Lot Next Door eligible neighbors who previously declined the opportunity to purchase a property included in the auction. Bidding will start at $1,000 on each property and sells to the highest bidder regardless of price. Winning bidders will agree to rehab or begin construction on the property within 12 months and keep it free from blight. Bidders may also utilize the property for green space if they are a directly adjacent property owner.

Save this house! Historic Treme “Jaeger House” at 1027 N Roman Street
Posted by: | Comments
The historic Jager House at 1027 N Roman is in danger of demolition once again, despite strong efforts to save it.
The property, dating back to the 1850′s, is “essentially a two-story extension of the creole cottage,” as described in its listing in the Treme volume of the New Orleans Architecture series, which further states that this type of house, with gabled sides and second-level galleries on the front and rear, was common in the creole suburbs in the mid 19th century. The house is featured in the New Orleans Architectural Series, Volume VI: Faubourg Treme and the Bayou Road for its unique styling.
St. Peter Claver parish plans to demolish the building for the expansion of its playground, if there is no interest in relocating the house. Councilwoman Kristin Palmer is working to get the house moved, but the estimated $50,000 cost seems to have deterred potential buyers.
According to the article in the Times Picayune, the owner has applied to HDLC for the demolition of the house, which has been on the agenda many times over the years and denied every time.
If you are interested in moving the Jager House, email PRC staff HERE.

BUY THIS HOUSE! Save This Shotgun House in Holy Cross
Posted by: | Comments
The New Orleans Redevelopment Authority has proposed to demolish this lovely shotgun house in Holy Cross, named Best Old House Neighborhoods in 2011. But YOU can help save this endangered species by purchasing the house from NORA and renovating this gem!
This great single-family house, located at 414 Tupelo St., has the distinction of being 1 of only 3 in Holy Cross where the front elevation is offset from the property line, meaning that the front facade is not parallel to the street. The proposed demolition will be considered by the Historic District Landmarks Commission on Thursday, July 14, 2011.
UPDATE: HDLC voted unanimously to deny the demolition request for this house.
If you are interested in buying this house, contact:

Annunciation Church and adjacent properties FOR SALE!
Posted by: | Comments
Nearly an entire historic block is for sale in the St. Roch neighborhood, part of the New Marigny National Register Historic District! The Annunciation Church consolidated in 2001, and since then the buildings, some of which date back to the early 1900s, have stood empty. The Church made a move to demolish the properties in 2009 but was denied (click here for our 2009 post on the church), and the properties (which include the church, rectory, parish hall, empty lot, and carport) were recently put on the market at the total price of $296,500.
With rehabilitation, the possibilites for these properties are endless.
CLICK HERE to view the real estate listing!
Located in Algiers Point Local Historic District near the Henry “Red” Allen house, 440 Newton / 923 Nunez St was last used as “Rita’s Bar: Home of the Mohawk Hunters” many years ago. It is zoned B2 (neighborhood commercial). It is a GOLD rated building per the Historic District Landmark’s Commission rating structure and exterior renovations are subject to HDLC’s review process.
The property is located 2 blocks from Mardi Gras World. The naval base is nearby. Common Ground is building across the street.
This project is NOT a project for the novice but it certainly would be an asset to the neighborhood if renovated. You’d be our hero — especially since we renovated 414 Newton Street, the former home of Jazz Legend Henry “Red” Allen!
*NOTE: This property is NOT owned by PRC and we can not testify to the specific condition of the structure, thought we should note that the HDLC’s inspector has noted at HDLC hearings that the building is in VERY poor condition. Please contact the property owner via Craig’s List with your questions and be sure to hire a professional inspector or structural engineer supply a structural report for this building.*
