N.O. is a bit louche -- no news there -- but there's a quality that's missing from other US cities and that's what makes it interesting. It has a real soul and you can't help but notice it. It never has the look of a set in a costume drama -- always the look of a real place. I went to high school in the Garden District so maybe I'm biased, but a ride up St. Charles Ave. on the streetcar with all the windows open and oaks and magnolias on both sides is a pretty special experience. -- Phil Swango 307 Aliso Dr SE Albuquerque, NM 87108 505-262-4085
