About
Fillmore
Fillmore, located between City Park and Lake Pontchartrain, is a residential and recreational New Orleans neighborhood with mid-century streetscapes and broad greenway edges. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Bayou St. John corridor near Wisner Boulevard, where joggers, cyclists, and picnic blankets track the waterline. Brick ranch homes and low-slung cottages sit beside newer infill, giving blocks a practical, lived-in look. The nearby New Orleans Museum of Art and the New Orleans Botanical Garden set a cultural, park-forward rhythm. City Park’s trails, lagoons, and sports fields shape daily routines more than commercial strips.
