Passion for Progress
Since 1987, the Downtown Development District has been a passionate advocate and catalyst for the growth and vitality of Downtown Baton Rouge.
The mission of the DDD is to generate funds and to create a comprehensive policy for the promotion and enhancement of the District to benefit the entire community. To fulfill this mission, we work with the public and private sector to initiate, incubate and support partnerships that develop and enhance the District, using community-driven master plans and economic incentives. These partnerships have produced unprecedented momentum and excitement for the future of Downtown — we’re immensely proud to be a part of it. With quality schools, diverse entertainment options and unparalleled cultural amenities all within walking distance, it’s no wonder more and more people are finding Downtown the perfect place to live, work and play.
