Fine Queen Anne Style building, located at Canal Blvd and 3rd. St in Thibodaux's historic district. Very well maintained and now houses a Law firm. Very little found on searches or history, however I did find this brief statement, from the Louisiana Register web site, listed below as Secondary Website.

CHANTICLEER GIFT SHOP
Built sometime between 1898 and 1907
The Chanticleer Gift Shop is a single story frame Queen Anne Revival residence with Eastlake gallery details. The plan consists of two front rooms and a rear corridor leading to bedrooms and a kitchen. There are four golden oak mantels, two sets of pocket doors, one panel of "carpenter's lace," and two polygonal bays. The roofline features multiple hip roof shapes and scallop-shingled gables. The roof's crowning feature is an octagonal scallop-shingled turret with a conical roof and a flared base. The intricate Eastlake gallery changes direction six times in order to encompass the front portion of the house. The only change in the house since construction has been the enclosure of a small rear gallery. This, we feel, should be regarded as minor.
