2012 Map of Baton Rouge West

About this map

The Mississippi River creates a stark divide between the industrial landscape of West Baton Rouge and the dense urban grid of Baton Rouge in this 2012 survey. On the west bank, the Poplar Grove Plantation and Cinclare Gas Field reflect the traditional agricultural and resource-based economy, while the Greater Baton Rouge Port and facilities like the West Baton Rouge Parish Westport Wastewater Facility signal modern infrastructure. Across the water, the city spreads eastward from Istrouma Bluff, anchored by the sprawling campus of Louisiana State University and A&M College and the tranquil University Lake. This edition documents the complex network of neighborhoods ranging from Beauregard Town to Standard Heights, alongside significant local landmarks including the Baton Rouge National Cem and Saint Joseph Cem.
