Chartres Street, old French Quarter, New Orleans, Louisiana, USA, 1940. Postcard. View showing Napoleon House on the corner of Chartres Street. Cars are parked along the street and a church is visible in the distance. Built in 1797, Napoleon House derived its name from a local story that it was intended to be the former French Emperor's residence after his exile. The building served as the residence of the Mayor of New Orleans, Nicholas Girod, between 1812 and 1815. Since the end of the Prohibition era it has housed a bar called the Napoleon House.
