Wikipedia: The Napoleon House is a famous building in the French Quarter of New Orleans, Louisiana. Its name derives from the popular local story that its building was intended to be a residence for Napoleon Bonaparte after his exile; a local plot to bring Napoleon to Louisiana was halted with news of Napoleon's death. The building is also known as Mayor Girod House or Nicolas Girod House, as it was the home of Nicholas Girod, mayor of New Orleans.
