Woldenberg Park

Woldenberg Park, Riverfront park near French Quarter in New Orleans, United States

Woldenberg Park is a riverfront green space that runs along the Mississippi River in downtown New Orleans, Louisiana. It features paved walking paths, open lawns, and a series of outdoor sculptures spread across the grounds.

The site was once a working waterfront with warehouses and cargo docks lining the river's edge. During the 1980s, the city transformed it into a public park, opening the riverbank to residents and visitors for the first time.

The park's name honours philanthropist Malcolm Woldenberg (1896–1982), who helped fund its construction. Near the middle stands Yaacov Agam's New Orleans Holocaust Memorial Sculpture, which shows different images from different angles, among them a Star of David and a menorah. Franco Alessandrini's Monument to the Immigrant was installed in 1995, and the stainless steel "Ocean Song" is also on the grounds. The park occasionally hosts live music, especially during the French Quarter Festival.

Visiting in the early morning or late afternoon gives a more comfortable experience, especially in warm weather. The park connects directly to the French Quarter and the Aquarium of the Americas, making it a natural stop on any walk through the riverfront area.

The New Orleans Holocaust Memorial Sculpture by Yaacov Agam stands near the middle of the park; its forms change with the viewer's angle, showing a Star of David and a menorah. The Monument to the Immigrant, by Franco Alessandrini, was installed in 1995, and a stainless steel work, "Ocean Song," also stands on the grounds.
