Forgive my ignorance...though I've spent a lot of time in New Orleans, I'm not from New Orleans. I thought Carrolton was part of Uptown? I don't guess it has much bearing on any of this, but that came to my mind when I read your post.

Carolton can be considered part of uptown, but alot of people consider it it's own seperate neighborhood. It used to be it's own town, actually, before It got incorporated into New Orleans. You have to remember that there are lots of varying definitions of uptown.

The buiulding that is now Ben Franklin school was the original - old age is getting me! - courthouse or town hall for the town of Carrollton. I think it was the courthouse.
