About South

Campus

South Campus, located between LSU’s main campus and the Mississippi River levee, is a residential and academic Baton Rouge neighborhood with oak-shaded streets and a bikeable grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Highland Road near Lee Drive, where coffee counters, casual eateries, and campus-facing storefronts keep the sidewalks active. The Chimes Restaurant & Tap Room and Louie’s Cafe act as long-running local anchors for post-class plates and late-night conversation. Mid-century apartments and compact cottages mix with newer infill, giving blocks a lived-in, collegiate cadence. The LSU Lakes and the levee path shape daily routines with water views and long, flat routes for walking and cycling. Game-day traffic and weekday lectures add a steady pulse without changing the area’s laid-back feel.
