1992 Map of Baton Rouge East

About this map

Greendale sits at the northern edge of this suburban landscape, an area defined by its dense residential growth and complex road network at the start of the 1990s. The geography here is a mix of late-twentieth-century development interspersed with drainage systems like Hurricane Creek and Ward Creek, which shape the flow of the modern neighborhoods. This specific edition, revised from 1989 aerial photography, documents the expansion of the eastern corridor, showing the intricate grid of residential streets that had largely replaced former agricultural or undeveloped lands by this period. For researchers of Louisiana urban development, the map provides a clear record of the spatial organization of commercial and residential zones just before the digital mapping era, capturing the precise layout of Greendale and its surrounding communities during a phase of significant regional growth.
