The Mississippi River carves the western boundary of this landscape, framing the industrial and academic corridor of north Baton Rouge. This area is anchored by the campus of Southern Univ and A & M Coll, situated near Scott Bluffs overlooking the river. The settlement pattern reveals a dense network of suburban developments and family-named tracts such as McClure Place, Gibbens Place, and Jenkins-Pryce Place, which speak to the long-standing community history of East Baton Rouge Parish.
