David Vitter (R-La.) today announced that the Interior Department has recognized the St. Charles Streetcar Line in New Orleans as a National Historic Landmark. The St. Charles Line has operated continuously since 1923-24, making it the oldest operational street railway in the country. “The Streetcar is an iconic example of Louisiana’s rich history and culture,” Vitter said. “New Orleans is one of the most unique cities in the country, and St. Charles Avenue is one of the most beautiful streets. The St. Charles Streetcar Line is certainly deserving of this designation.” The National Historic Landmarks Program is administered by the National Park Service on behalf of the Secretary of the Interior. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
