re: Will Gentrification Ever Happen in Baton Rouge?

Capitol Heights and mid city are far nicer today than 20 years ago. Tara is doing well too. Starting to see some improvements along Florida Blvd finally but it’s slow.
Broadmoor has a lot of extensive home renovations right now. That’s a solid neighborhood with largish lots and a dense tree canopy.
As far as north Baton Rouge….it’s a long ways away, if it ever happens at all. The housing stock is mostly not historically significant. A lot would have to be completely rebuilt. And nobody wants to live next door to an ever-expanding behemoth of a refinery.

Definitely a lot of renovation in Broadmoor. I think it's a neighborhood that is seeing some popularity because it mostly didn't flood, while Sherwood Forest had extensive flooding. It will be interesting to see what affect if any the new Amazon warehouse has on the area.

Again, it doesn’t seem like people know what “getrifying” means

Sherwood too. It’s good that people think otherwise. Though the trash has to be pushed out, but yes, renovations are aplenty there.
