My friend found an abandoned tree house in the woods 15 min. outside of New Olreans in Chalmette. A bus ride down St. Claude into Arabi and then a 15 min. walk or I would say 30 min. bike ride.
Right now it is just a raised square wooden platform with each corner nailed to a tree with a support beam underneath and a ladder for access. The cool thing is there is still some left over wood and also another platform at the entrance to the woods. I was thinking of enclosing the bottom half and making a room, maybe even enclose the top half. Anyone is welcome to come and help add on to it or just chill, squat, party whatever just be cool and discreet.
 
Cool, its in the woods behind the big park that is next to walmart. I can show you where it is if you are around.

Super cool, you should draw a map and take a few snaps so we can check it all out.
 
Nice. I live a few hours from NOLA so the next time I'm here I should explore around to find it.

Some pictures would be cool. I'm wondering how high up the treehouse is.
 
its 10 x 10 ft wood platform raised about 8 ft of the ground. We put a 4 person tent on top of the platform. Sorry no pics, no camera. If anyone wants directions message me.
 
Brad, if i buy you a beer and weed,can you do me a favor and message me your cell phone number? coz I'm in san francisco right now, and there is a scheme called homeward bound which gives people free tickets to anywhere in the USA. bunt i need someone in new orleons to verify that they know me. PLEASE... i will help repair the tree house and make it real nice. bye.
 
.....there is an edit option, and do you really think someone is going to infiltrate this website? Plus it's just a tree house...not even, just a bored in a tree, we should build these all over and stash gear around them with maps and pilgrimages to reach them. Eh eh

Not a bad idea, really. It sounds like a fun way to travel. Treehopping:
