Tchoupitoulas Street (CHOP-i-TOO-ləs) gets its name from an Indian tribe that possibly means “those who live at the river.” Tchoupitoulas is one of many street names that confuses visitors to the city. It begins in downtown New Orleans at Canal Street (opposite the French Quarter) and follows the curve of the Mississippi River until it ends at Audubon Park. The popular and well-known uptown, music venue Tipitina’s is also located on Tchoupitoulas. Makes pronouncing Puch (po͝ok) easy, doesn’t it?
