Veterans Memorial Boulevard

Veterans Memorial Boulevard

Veterans Memorial Boulevard (locally referred to as Vets or Veterans) is an 6-lane thoroughfare in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana, running west-east mostly parallel to Interstate 10. The western terminus is at Belleview Boulevard in Kenner just north of the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport and just east of the St. Charles Parish line. Veterans than proceeds in an easterly direction across the Jefferson Parish communities of Kenner and Metairie before crossing the 17th Street Canal into New Orleans and terminating at West End Boulevard approximately 1/2 mile east of the Orleans Parish line.

Veterans is primarily a commercial corridor lined with malls such as Lakeside Mall and Clearview Mall, strip shopping centers and car dealers. During Carnival season, several Mardi Gras parades roll along portions of Veterans as they wind through the streets of Metairie.
