1101 North Rampart

This fine example of late 19th century Italianate architecture was designed by renowned architect G.A. D'Hemecourt and built for Dr. A. Dupaquier in 1879. For many years while a private residence the home was known as The Dupaquier House. Perhaps its most notable incarnation came in 1971 when jazz bassist Charlie Bering and Lula Lewis opened a night club on this corner that quickly became known as a focal point for the modernist jazz movement. Lu and Charlies: Potables-Sustenance-Jazz hosted the likes of Ellis and Wynton Marsalis, Lady BJ Crosby, James Booker, Alvin Baptiste and many other jazz greats. The club closed in 1977, and after a 1982 historical renovation the building re-opened as Menefee's Restaurant. Today the building houses the New Orleans Courtyard Hotel.
