Talk:Algiers, New Orleans

message: I changed the wording of the opening sentence to clarify or emphasize that Algiers is not independently incorporated as a municipality in Louisiana but rather is a part of the City of New Orleans. Thus, "a community in Louisiana, part of the city of New Orleans" became "a community within the city of New Orleans."
I also changed the paragraph about churches in Algiers, and I hope the previous writer will forgive me. Instead of beginning with one or two sentences about Trinity Lutheran, and then mentioning Catholic and Baptist congregations in a subsequent sentence, I felt it was relevant to mention Catholics and Baptists first, since I believe they are numerically predominant among Christian churches in Algiers and New Orleans.  I say this even though I was married at Trinity Lutheran.
Furthermore, even a brief paragraph about religious groups in Algiers really needs to include Muslim and Jewish Algerines.  I hope someone else more knowledgeable will contribute mention of them.

message: This map of Algiers is not very accurate, it looks like only Algiers Point is highlighted. I live in Lower Coast Algiers, and my area isn't even on the map.
: It's more than the Point, but it looks like it cuts off around the Intracoastal Canal, not including English Turn/Lower Coast. Can anyone produce a better one, please? Also, more information on other parts of Algiers in the article would be appreciated. -- Infrogmation 15:05, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

message: I assume the community is named after Algiers, Algeria. How did it get the name?  A reference to the French conquest of Algeria in 1830?  Funnyhat 19:39, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've heard it said that it was called "Algiers" because it was across the Mississippi from New Orleans like Algieria was across the Mediterranian from France. This may well just be a folk explanation; I don't know the actual history. A good point to look in to! -- Infrogmation 21:40, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

message: I restored what I think is a more accurate description of the early development. I am unaware of residential development until some years after the 1719 land grant, and even taking that date as the neighborhood being "founded", it wouldn't be the city's second oldest neighborhood as claimed, since there was European settlement in both the Bayou St. Jean and "French Quarter" neighborhoods already. -- Infrogmation (talk) 18:10, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Infrogmation is correct.... but as of today (28 Dec 2017) the (false, or at least uncited) claim to be the 2nd oldest neighborhood has been reasserted.  Otterswimshome (talk) 05:10, 29 December 2017 (UTC)
