<P> Algiers Point is a location on the Lower Mississippi River in New Orleans, Louisiana . In river pilotage, Algiers Point is simply one of the many points of land around which the river flows--albeit a significant one . Since the 1970s, the name Algiers Point has also referred to the neighborhood in the immediate vicinity of that point . People from Algiers Point (and Algiers as a whole) are known as Algierenes, or Algerines, but never as Algerians . </P> <P> The course of the Mississippi River past and through New Orleans is in the shape of a crescent . As the river reaches the downriver end of that crescent, flowing by then in a northerly direction, it makes a sharp "right - hand" turn to the east . The French Quarter, Faubourg Marigny and Bywater lie on the outside of the bend on the river's left descending bank . The point of land on the river's right descending bank is, and has historically been, called Algiers Point . </P> <P> Just off this point is where the Mississippi River is at its deepest, approximately 60 meters (200 ft) deep . This depth varies from year to year as the river alternately scours and deposits silt . A U.S. Coast Guard aid to navigation, Algiers Point Light "95," marks the point . Its geographic coordinates are 29 ° 57 ′ 19" N 90 ° 03 ′ 19" W ﻿ / ﻿ 29.95528 ° N 90.05528 ° W ﻿ / 29.95528; - 90.05528 </P> <P> The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' linear description of the location is mile 94.6 AHP (above Head of Passes) on the Lower Mississippi River . </P>
