City of New Orleans' Vieux Carre Commission (VCC)
"The efforts of Louisiana's early preservationists finally succeeded in the 1930s with the creation of the Vieux Carré Commission. An amendment to the Louisiana Constitution of 1921 (Article XIV, Section 22A) laid the groundwork. This amendment specifically addressed the preservation of the "quaint" traditional architecture in New Orleans' Vieux Carré, the so-called French Quarter, and enabled the creation of a municipal body to safeguard the structures in this old section, which is bounded by Iberville Street, Esplanade Avenue, North Rampart Street and the Mississippi River."
