Alexandria Louisiana Homes, Houses and Parks

Alexandria experienced tremendous growth in real estate during the 20th century, with a variety of new homes and houses built in new subdivisions along with apartment complexes.

City Park was a main focus of outdoor recreation with its golf course, zoo, auditorium, play grounds, natatorium and baseball fields, and of course the famous "Rock Garden".

Shown below are some historic postcard scenes of Alexandria homes and parks.
