The source is Robinson’s Atlas of the City of New Orleans, 1883.
Note that the streetcar station was at the river and St. Charles. The tracks did not extend up Carrollton at this time. Note also the market on Dublin north of Hampson. Look also for a couple of wells, a livery station and a sawmill on the map.

New Orleans Street Railway Association
Yes, there is one and it is a nonprofit educational organization.
The website features some photos of streetcars on Carrollton Ave and Willow Street in 1901. I am struck by the very nice shelters that they had along the route back then.
