Aldrich-Genella House - New Orleans, LA - U.S. National Register of Historic Places on Waymarking.com

Beautiful home, 2 story with a 3 story tower. It is called Second Empire style. Home appeared to be in fine condition and the grounds were also well groomed. Little information about the home comes from the State of Louisiana Register page on home, located here which states

The Aldrich-Genella House is significant in the area of architecture as probably the finest residential example of Second Empire architecture in the state. In all likelihood it is the only example in Louisiana which has all of the following features:
1. A fully articulated side tower with its own pavilion mansard roof
2. A full two and one-half story height which reaches three and one-half stories at the tower
3. A wide variety of windows including four different dormer designs
4. A side wing which is played off against the tower to give a boldly three dimensional effect
