Bayou St. John (French: Bayou Saint-Jean) is a bayou within the city of New Orleans, Louisiana. The Bayou as a natural feature drained the swampy land of a good portion of what was to become New Orleans, into Lake Pontchartrain. In its natural state, it extended much farther than today; 18th- and early 19th-century maps show it had tributaries or branches (at least seasonally) reaching into what are now the Broadmoor neighborhood, the New Orleans Central Business District just back from St. Charles Avenue above Lee Circle, the Carrollton neighborhood, the Treme neighborhood, and a branch connecting to Bayou Gentilly.

  • Le bayou Saint-Jean, (en anglais : Bayou Saint-John), anciennement appelé Bayouk Choupic par les Amérindiens, est un cours d'eau qui coule dans les faubourgs de La Nouvelle-Orléans pour aller se jeter dans le lac Pontchartrain en Louisiane. Ce bayou était plus étendu à l'époque de la Nouvelle-France. De nombreux bras rejoignaient ce bayou, notamment lors des grandes marées et des inondations saisonnières. Nombre d'entre eux permirent d'assécher les marais environnant. De nombreux bras secondaires sinuent encore le long de son lit, notamment dans le vaste City Park qui borde le bayou. (fr)
