The Algiers Point Association
Membership Information | APA Officers
The Algiers Point Association was founded in 1972 by a group of individuals interested in preserving the integrity of its architecture and improving the quality of life in the neighbhorhood. In the intervening years, the APA, a 501(c)(4) [a not-for-profit social welfare organization], has worked hard to implement and expand its original goals.
Through the efforts of the APA, the Algiers Point Historic Distric was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. The area became a city Historic District in 1994.
The annual Home & Garden Tour was one of the first neighborhood sponsored tours in the city and continues to serve as a tool to showcase and to instill pride in our community.
The 30th Anniversary Home Tour Poster shown here is available at our online APA store for $5.00. Purchase it online now along with other great products at our online store.
The APA works to preserve the ferry service for pedestrian and vehicular traffic. The Transportation Committee also deals with bus and auto traffic flow concerns in the Point.
A walking tour brochure to market our historic neighborhood is produced and distrubuted by the Marketing and Tourism Development Committee.
Each month the APA hosts a Community Meeting. Meetings feature guests speakers on various topics of interest, offer opportunities to build camaraderie to other residents, and discuss committee agendas and meeting dates. The meetings are held the first Thursday of each month at Holy Name of Mary School's Cafeteria on Eliza Street at 7:00 p.m. and are open to the general public.
