One of the newer communities in Algiers, Aurora Riverside offers the safety and security of a gated subdivision and the exclusivity of a small community (only 41 home sites!) combined with a convenient location just off of General Meyer Avenue and backing up to the Mississippi River.
With architectural designs reminiscent of old New Orleans, homes in Aurora Riverside have a historic feel while offering all of the modern amenities you would expect from a 21st century community, including an active home owners association that is dedicated to preserving the surroundings and lifestyle the residents have come to expect.
