About University
Acres-Woodstone
University Acres-Woodstone, located between Highland Road and Nicholson Drive, is a residential and campus-adjacent Baton Rouge neighborhood with curving, oak-lined streets and a low-slung midcentury feel. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Highland Road and Lee Drive corridor, where coffee counters, casual eateries, and local storefronts set a steady daytime rhythm. Ranch-style homes and brick cottages sit behind deep setbacks, with pockets of newer infill near major arterials. The LSU lakes and nearby greenways shape an outdoors-forward routine with walking loops and water views. Perkins Road Overpass and its independent restaurants add a polished night-out circuit. The Chimes and The Varsity Theatre serve as familiar community pillars.
