Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 09/27/2022 12:23 am Just to add that the building depicted to the right of the "Top of the Mart" is St. Louis Cathedral, which dates back to 1789 (although it was largely rebuilt in the 1850's). A wonderful pictorial website devoted to this famous New Orleans landmark: https://www.stlouiscathedral.org/?ui=2 Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff
