About
Southdowns
Southdowns, located between Highland Road and Perkins Road, is a residential and collegiate Baton Rouge neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and oak-canopied streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Perkins Road Overpass corridor near Perkins Rd and Stanford Ave, where patios, small bars, and chef-driven kitchens line the sidewalk. The Chimes, The Bulldog, and Overpass Merchant serve as local pillars for food, drinks, and late-night conversation. Brick cottages and low-slung ranches sit on deep lots, with sidewalks that link to nearby parks and campus edges. A short drive leads to LSU’s museums and game-day energy, while the streets stay calm and shaded. Daily routines often orbit coffee runs, bike rides, and porch time under live oaks.
