The Baton Rouge Health District is a regional hub for health services. Located between Perkins Road and Interstate 10, the area is bordered to the south east by the Mall of Louisiana, both a regional designation and employment centers. Our Lady of the Lake Hospital will soon become a teaching hospital for LSU’s Medical College, and both Pennington Biomedical Research Center and the Baton Rouge General Medical Center campuses continue their expansion in this pivotal area. The popular Perkins Rowe mixed-use development has expanded housing, dining and shopping options. This compact neighborhood provides a model for additional residential, retail and commercial development options in this area. Beyond Perkins Rowe, newer single family neighborhoods border the district, and the majority of trips are taken via the interstate or by one of three primary arterials in the district: Bluebonnet Boulevard, Essen Lane and Perkins Road
