Duncan Plaza

The Downtown Development District through Southwest Airlines Heart of the Community Grant, in partnership with Arts Council New Orleans and support from Project for Public Spaces have made investments in infrastructure and enhancements to one of our largest Downtown greenspaces. With great programming, the new community dog park and new reasons to hang out, it’s time to reintroduce yourself to Duncan Plaza!

 

New Orleans Multicultural Tourism Network – Cultural Series

The DDD and the New Orleans Multicultural Tourism Network have partnered together to bring an Urban Culture Series to Duncan Plaza. During the latest installment, we experienced and learned about the culture of New Orleans Indians with performances by Mestre Curtis Pierre & Casa Samba as well as historical dialogue with Glen Jones from Black Masking Injuns.

The double gated fence, bistro garden lights and Adirondack chairs make for a great Downtown spot for canine residents and their owners. Come meet other Downtown Dog Owners and check out the new off-leash dog run!
