About West Lake
Forest
West Lake Forest, located between Lake Pontchartrain and I-10, is a residential and waterfront New Orleans neighborhood with canal-lined streets and mid-century ranch homes. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Hayne Boulevard corridor near Read Boulevard, where corner groceries, takeout counters, and service shops set a practical, lived-in rhythm. Lake Forest Plaza serves as a familiar retail anchor, while Joe Brown Memorial Park adds big-sky fields and trails. Along the lake, the Lake Pontchartrain levee path frames daily walks and bike rides with wide water views. Blocks of brick and stucco houses, deep driveways, and mature trees give the streets a calm, open feel.
