One of the best things a southern city like Baton Rogue can do is make its downtown nice
it was. Broome and Wokeness killed everything that Kip Built

While our city leaders like to compare BR to more established markets like Austin, Nashville and Birmingham
Oof. Self awareness is severely lacking.
Closest peer cities are at best Memphis, St Louis, and Montgomery.

Columbia, South Carolina
Probably a good comparator, especially considering the universities. I'm heading up this weekend for the first time for a game

ad Baton Rouge had any foresight 30 years ago than maybe you could have some sort of comparison with Austin or Nashville
Austin and Nashville aren't really overshadowed in their own states, and neither are in Louisiana

I asked GROK who the peer cities are for Baton Rouge based on some obvious factors... What we get are Shreveport, Jackson MS and Mobile AL.

yikes...

One of the best things a southern city like Baton Rogue can do is make its downtown nice and do the whole loft apartments/brewery/coffee shops/shopping song and dance. It's kind of corny, but at least there's an island of nice things among a sea of strip malls and gas stations and Churchs Chickens and Section 8 hood neighborhoods. A revitalized downtown is really good for civic pride and it gives people somewhere to go when they have family or company from out of town and want to take them somewhere.
I agree, but BR’s downtown isn’t bad. It could be more popping I guess but it’s not run down or anything. I enjoy being down there.
Wouldn’t take much to really take it to the next level imo

BR may be too far gone to ever have anything nice other than LSU sports...Too many holes of shite in BR.

Had Baton Rouge had any foresight 30 years ago
