Lambert-Gallier Inn of Court
Lambert & Lambert, Attorneys at Law
In 1836, renowned New Orleans architect James Gallier built these two buildings, 631 & 635 St. Charles Avenue along with the one on the right and the one that was on the corner of Samuel Morse for the sum of $20,000.00.
In 1978-79, after deteriorating to a flophouse known as the Savoy Hotel and two derelict bars, John D. Lambert, Jr. had these two buildings renovated to serve as his and his father’s, John D. Lambert’s law office; plus that of eighteen other attorneys, including reception area, law library, kitchen, lounge area, patio, and conference room.
Now third generation attorneys, Nolan P. Lambert and Alex D. Lambert have their offices here. Thus the name” Lambert-Gallier Inn of Court.
Marker is on Saint Charles Avenue.
