Now and Again is a weekly pictorial. Next issue of Miscellanea on Friday.

I realize that in this particular place I am just one of several observers — a person watching people watch people. Perhaps this is the nature of New Orleans. I don’t know if it is curiosity or trepidation, and maybe that depends on the part of town you’re in or who you grew up around. But in this stretch of downtown it’s most certainly both.

As a kid I remember Saturdays were for shopping on Canal. My mom and I would dress up, hit up all the long ago shuttered stores and end up eating lunch at D.H. Holmes.
