Esplanade Avenue was an important 19th century portage route of trade between the Bayou which linked to Lake Pontchartrain and the River. Many 19th century mansions still line the street; it functioned as a "millionaire's row" for the Louisiana Creole section of the city similar to that of St. Charles Avenue for the Anglophone section in Uptown New Orleans.
