The Downtown Development District in New Orleans is a legal definition and entity originated in 1974, when the Louisiana Legislature created the New Orleans Downtown Development District, a business improvement district (BID) bordered by Iberville Street, the Pontchartrain Expressway, Claiborne Avenue, and the Mississippi River.[1]

This district is anchored by the CBD, but it excludes the French Quarter. The DDD also incorporates the Warehouse District, as well as landmarks like the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, the Smoothie King Center, the New Orleans Morial Convention Center, The Outlet Collection at Riverwalk, the Crescent City Connection, and Canal Place.
