This was the original location of Milneburg, whose historic name has been more recently revived for use by a more modern neighborhood somewhat further south.

Land was reclaimed from Lake Pontchartrain in an Orleans Levee Board project which began in the 1920s and was completed in the 1930s, creating the space now occupied by the neighborhood.
