- Ryan EugeneNovember 12, 2018Overlooks the Mississippi River and steps away from the French Quarter and the aquarium. Well taken care of, it hosts festivals (including French Quarter Fest), movie shoots and other activities.
I fell in love here last May with an amazing Finnish woman. Laying on a blanket in the shade listening to the calliope play or watching ships pass by. A truly romantic scene.
Becherovka VoyagerJuly 17, 2013A visit to Woldenberg Park is like walking through a stately outdoor museum and gallery. Get yourself a Becherovka cocktail to go and start exploring!
Will NMarch 29, 2013The park was created in the late 80s/early 90s on land that had been old wharves and warehouses along the riverfront. It is named after philanthropist Malcolm Woldenberg who helped fund its creation.
Check out the views of the river. Best parking is near canal place / aquarium
