New York Times Features HNOC in “36 Hours in New Orleans”
July 10, 2024
Richard Fausset, national correspondent for the New York Times, included HNOC in his recommendations for a brief stay in the French Quarter. The writeup is part of NYT Travel’s 36 Hours series. Read the story below.
“In the French Quarter, the city’s colonial heart, gimmicky ghost tours are as common as cockroaches. A better way to commune with the spirits is to visit the Historic New Orleans Collection’s museum on Royal Street (free), which opened in April 2019 after a $38 million restoration and expansion of an 1816 mansion.”
Richard Fausset, New York Times national correspondent
