If indeed that really was Billy Faier (& y'all should check his website, regardless) who posted above AND if he might read the following question, I'd like to know. Today there is no marked address for 912 Toulouse St. - the addresses go from 910 to the next marker of 918. There is a a structure along the sidewalk with a locked gate. However, if you walk over to the opposite side of the street and look back, it's obvious there are some apartments with a courtyard but they have obviously been gentrified in the years since the song was lived out. My question is: was the apt courtyard reached from Dauphine Street? It must have been - nothing else fits the song's lyrics.
