Belle Chasse, LA is a small suburban town on the west bank of New Orleans, in Plaquemines Parish. The only parish in Louisiana without a "project system", so the population is mostly white. Belle Chasse is a refuge in the New Orleans area, when considering; property value, crime rate, school system, and taxes. Wonderful community to raise your children in, and still have the availability to enjoy all that New Orleans has to offer, without worrying about being robbed or murdered.
We moved to Belle Chasse to be around other rich white people, but still have access to the black people's rich heritage.
A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
