About The

Bottom

The Bottom, located between Downtown Baton Rouge and the LSU campus, is a historic and residential Baton Rouge neighborhood with a river-adjacent setting and a street-grid feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Third Street corridor near North Boulevard, where patios, galleries, and late-night bites set a steady hum. Shotgun cottages and small Creole-style homes sit alongside newer infill, keeping the streetscape varied and walkable. The Shaw Center for the Arts and Manship Theatre anchor an arts-forward calendar. Nearby, the Riverfront Plaza and the Mississippi River levee path frame daily routines with open sky and water views. Coffee stops like Magpie Café and market runs at the Red Stick Farmers Market add a local rhythm.
