Brick Siding for Historic Gretna
Gretna sits on the West Bank in Jefferson Parish, directly across the river from New Orleans, with one of the oldest and most intact historic downtowns in the metro. Old Gretna’s tight, walkable grid is full of late-1800s and early-1900s homes, and that heritage character rewards a masonry exterior that looks like it belongs. Brick veneer fits right in. It reads as period-appropriate, it’s fire-resistant, and it won’t rot or warp in the heavy Jefferson Parish humidity that wears down softer materials.
Beyond the historic core, McDonoghville carries some of the area’s oldest roots, and the neighborhoods around Mel Ott Park lean toward mid-century family homes. Brick suits owners across all of them who want a permanent, timeless look rather than a finish they’ll swap out in a decade. The honest costs stand: brick runs roughly $9 to $18 per square foot installed, above vinyl, and its weight means the wall needs proper structural support, with mortar joints possibly wanting repointing over the years. For a Gretna homeowner who values the neighborhood’s historic feel, brick is a natural fit that holds up through storm season.
