Comments:
Slidell is named after former Confederate revolutionary John Slidell and was originally a rail construction camp for the New Orleans & Northeastern Railroad. Now Slidell is a growing Suburb of New Orleans and old town Slidell seems to be a more modern version of the New Orleans' French Quarter. While the office is modern looking, the crowing rosters next door are a quick reminder of how rural the country side is immediately outside of the town boundary.
