| 摘要： | This archival evaluation of the riverfront of the City of New Orleans has determined that the movement of the river has been the major determinant of the possibility of 18th or 19th century in the path of the floodwall. For about half of the floodwall,the floodwell is on new land created after 1840. The primary hisiorically significant buildings along the stiverfront in the 18th and 19th centuries were comiDercial and industrial—cotton presses, sawmills, grain elevator, brickyards,and the dock system of New Orleans. This report locates the site of many of these structures. The floodwall crosses comparatively few residential structures. The report analyzes the struggle over thxs new batture—and concludes that its availability was a factor in the commercial supremacy of uptown New Orleans. The present warehouse district, once the lifeblood of the city, stands on the batture precisely because it was new unencumbered industrial sites close to the population base.^ |
