Living Library at Tulane: The Power of Your Story

Tulane University is easily accessible via the St Charles Streetcar. It will take approximately 45 minutes to arrive at the LBC from the French Quarter and will cost $1.25 per trip. 

The streetcar stop is located in front of Tulane campus and the driver will usually announce this stop as being "Tulane University" or "Audubon Park/Zoo" but this is not guaranteed. You can also ask to be notified.

Once off the streetcar, walk directly through campus until you arrive at the streetlight. This is Freret St. Cross the street at the light and continue walking straight. Walk for 1 minute until you reach the LBC which will be on your Left (immediately across from the construction project). Pocket Park, where the event will be held, is located outside on the ground-level floor of the LBC.
