1800 Marengo Street

After the Heart of America Breakfast on Tuesday morning, we hopped on a street car and rode west on St. Charles Avenue where we stopped to view the house where a distant relative of mine lived at the time of his death in 1931. The house at 1800 Marengo Street was once the residence of Henry Clay Warmoth, who served briefly as governor of Louisiana during Reconstruction.
