Your Donation Matters

The Underpass Project will transform the area beneath the Perkins Road Overpass into a new multi-use space that will be an important connectivity portal between north and south Baton Rouge, and a vibrant community space.

The Underpass Project will feature a linear park, improved parking for patrons of local businesses, a partially elevated ADA accessible path between Reymond Avenue and Christian Street, as well as unique public art.

Key features like way-finding, lighting, pedestrian paths, and community spaces will place Baton Rouge among the ranks of cities leading the way on taking back the block.

Improved Parking

This plan will repair the parking spaces under and the Perkins Road Overpass area, making it easier to reach your favorite destinations.

"We can make it happen."

"The space is full of potential. Creating a multi-use path resembling a linear park is something the area residents and businesses have talked about for years. We have invested time and money to bring it to reality" - Jenni Peters, Varsity Sports
