Plenty of mixed zoning in New Orleans. Unsurprisingly for a French-founded city, the older areas (not just the French Quarter) use the traditional shops-on-ground-floor-living-quarters-above method. And they have a lot of small commercial streets within their neighborhoods, which are demarcated more by the larger divided streets (many of which had streetcar lines running down the space between - in most places, it's the "median", but in NO, it's the "neutral ground". No, I have no idea why they call it that - never lived there but go quite often).
