The Howard

The Howard is a restored historic landmark in New Orleans’ iconic Triangle Building, a flatiron-style structure dating back to the 1920s that now houses luxury apartments and ground-floor commercial space in the Central Business District and Warehouse District area. Its position near Lee Circle, the St. Charles streetcar line, and major interstate on and off ramps makes it a convenient base for business travelers, medical visitors, and tourists heading to attractions like the Superdome, museums, and the French Quarter, which also means local streets can be busy during rush hours, game days, and festival seasons. Because of the steady mix of residents, commuters, and visitors, securing parking near The Howard in advance helps avoid circling crowded blocks and makes arrivals and departures smoother.

Street parking in this part of downtown is limited, often metered, and subject to time limits and residential or commercial restrictions, so drivers should be prepared for competition over open curbside spaces and pay close attention to posted signs. The building itself offers secure off-street parking options for residents and some tenants, but these are typically controlled or limited, so visitors may need to rely on nearby paid facilities and should factor walking time to and from the building into their plans. Booking parking ahead of time is especially helpful if you are carrying luggage, attending an event on a tight schedule, or unfamiliar with New Orleans’ one-way streets and busy corridors. Always review current city regulations and official sources before your trip, as parking rules and availability can change.
