A skinny one-story house, one room wide, with every room opening straight into the next — no hallway, front door to back door in a straight line. Defining NOLA housing stock. The legend goes you could fire a shotgun through the front door and the buckshot would sail clean out the back. Singles, doubles (two units side by side), and camelbacks (with a second-floor add-on at the rear) are all variations on the same DNA.
“She rents a shotgun double on Magazine — two bedrooms, no hallway, neighbours on the other side of the wall.”
