1992 Map of Baton Rouge West

About this map

The Mississippi River divides this landscape, separating the bustling capital of Baton Rouge from the industrial and agricultural lands of West Baton Rouge Parish. In the early 1990s, the east bank is defined by the expansive campus of Louisiana State University and A & M College, surrounding University Lake and City Park Lake. To the north, the State Capitol stands near the urban core of Istrouma and Delmont Place. Across the river, the Port Allen waterfront is dominated by the Port Allen Lock and the southern terminus of the Intercoastal Waterway. This western side retains visible ties to its agrarian past through sites like the Poplar Grove Plantation and Cinclare, while the presence of the Missouri Pacific RR and Illinois Central Gulf RR highlights the region's role as a major transportation and shipping hub.
