"105" Large studio on St. Charles Avenue

You are right on St. Charles Avenue--not "3 blocks from St. Charles" because 3 blocks makes a difference in the feeling you get when you walk out the front door to meet your Uber or just to take a walk under the trees or ride the streetcar uptown to Audubon Park, Zoo, University area or downtown to the French Quarter. We are in the center of activity with restaurants within walking distance like Commander's Palace or coffee shops and Magazine St. is 5 blocks away.
