Lakewood, located between Lake Pontchartrain and Metairie, is a residential and lakeside New Orleans neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and canal-lined edges. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Lakewood Shopping Center on Veterans Memorial Boulevard, where low-slung storefronts, local eateries, and everyday errands share the same parking-lot rhythm. Lakewood Country Club anchors the area with fairways and a classic clubhouse presence. Nearby, The Blue Crab Restaurant & Oyster Bar adds a long-running seafood counterpoint to the suburban grid. Housing reads as brick ranches and tidy courtyards, with levees and water views shaping the horizon.
