This is really in mid city, but I suspect they are getting tax credits for building a new location on the north side of Florida street.

quote:

Rouses Market will open its north Baton Rouge grocery store next week, at the corner of Florida Boulevard and North Ardenwood Drive.

The 44,000-square-foot freestanding store—slated to open at 8 a.m. Jan. 11—is highly anticipated. Most of north Baton Rouge is considered a food desert and the area has struggled to attract a grocery store for years. Rouses is hiring more than 200 employees to staff the store.


quote:

Florida Boulevard recently has seen an uptick of activity along the corridor, which has long been considered underinvested. Starbucks recently opened near the Amazon fulfillment center and All Star Catering owner Brian Medlin opened Opie’s restaurant in the former La Boilers building across from the Bon Carré office park, in the spring. Renovations to the landmark Mid City Tower on Florida Boulevard also wrapped up last summer.

Rouses at Burbank and Lee always has security guards who never do anything. They may get a little more action at this location

6 weeks tops before they close due to theft and violence.

There are several in sketchy neighborhoods in New Orleans. I am sure Rouses has figured out how to make it work.

Lots of employers in that area, so I suspect this location will emphasize prepared meals and lunches.

Their breakfast bar is a DEAL! I have to make myself drive on by and not stop more frequently on the way to the office.

It's $4.99/lb and has homemade biscuits, links, patties, grits, eggs, hashbrowns.

I can make two big arse breakfast biscuit sammiches for about $4.50(just under 1 lb).

Dangerous.
