Vieux Carré Commission Evaluation:
Main building -- green with blue stripes; courtyard structures -- brown : to : main building -- blue; courtyard structures -- brown. This c. 1832 3-story masonry Transitional style building, now the site of the Court of Two Sisters, and the adjacent building at 609-11 Royal were built in 1832 by Zenon Cavalier, president of the Banque de l'Orleans. The delicate detailing, including the garlanded wooden cornice and the wrought iron balconies, point to the work of architects Gurlie and Guillot. Since the late 19th-century the property has best been known for its spacious courtyard, which accentuates the Creole design of the rear arches.
