Modern Farms, located between U.S. 90 and the Mississippi River, is a residential and riverside Waggaman neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and levee-side open space. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the River Road corridor near the Huey P. Long Bridge, where industrial river views, corner markets, and workday traffic set a practical, lived-in tone. Housing reads as low-slung brick homes and tidy lots, with a landscape shaped by the levee and wide skies. The Mississippi River levee path frames daily routines with long, linear views. Nearby, the Huey P. Long Bridge anchors the skyline and local orientation. For culture and a night-out orbit, the Rivertown district in Kenner adds the Rivertown Theaters for the Performing Arts and the Louisiana Children’s Museum.

Suburban District
This district is composed of certain lands and structures having a low density single-family residential character and additional open area where it is likely and desirable that such similar development will occur. Portions of these areas are not served by the full range of urban facilities such as water, sanitary sewers, natural gas and public transit. Though the district is intended primarily for residential purposes, it is recognized that agriculture and the raising of poultry and live stock is frequently desired by home owners in this district therefore provision is made for limited forms of such activity with appropriate safeguards for nearby residences.
