Here's your chance to build an investment property or your dream home on a double lot in popular Mid City, within walking distance of all the dining, shopping & cultural events Government St. has to offer!
Mid City, located between Government Street and Florida Boulevard, is a historic and eclectic Baton Rouge neighborhood with a porch-lined streetscape and a strong arts-and-food scene. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Government Street near the Mid City Beer Garden, where patios, murals, and small storefronts set a lively, walkable rhythm. Shotgun cottages and mid-century ranch homes mix with pocket parks and community gardens. White Light Night turns the corridor into an open-air gallery with pop-ups and live sets. Local pillars include Baton Rouge Gallery, Rocca Pizzeria, and Elsie’s Plate & Pie. Tree canopies and the Capital Area Rail Trail stitch daily routines to nearby green space and studios.
