Baton Rouge is making big, bold moves in 2026, and what’s coming is unlike anything we’ve seen here before.

We’re talking about major mixed-use developments, downtown revitalization, infrastructure upgrades, job growth, and new housing options that are completely reshaping the future of the Baton Rouge area and surrounding parishes.

In this video, we break down all the major developments coming to Baton Rouge, and help you understand why so many families, professionals, and retirees are starting to pay close attention.

One of the biggest things people love about Baton Rouge is that it isn’t trying to be Houston. Growth here is happening in a more intentional way without the constant chaos and congestion. That balance is exactly why relocation demand continues to rise.

I’ve helped many families move to the Baton Rouge area. Some came for short-term job opportunities, and many decided to stay long-term because the lifestyle simply worked for them.

What You’ll Learn in This Video

We cover:

• Major mixed-use and residential developments
• The proposed $400 million state-of-the-art arena near LSU
• Downtown and riverfront revitalization
• Massive industrial and manufacturing investments
• Job growth across Baton Rouge and surrounding parishes
• New neighborhoods and housing options for relocation buyers
• Why Saint George may surprise you the most

The LSU Arena & Mixed-Use District

One of the most exciting proposals is a new multi-purpose arena designed to host basketball games, major concerts, conventions, and community events. The long-term vision includes a walkable mixed-use district with retail, dining, entertainment, residential, and university-related spaces.

This type of development creates lifestyle appeal something people relocating from larger metro areas are already used to.

Industrial Growth & Jobs

Baton Rouge is seeing billions of dollars in industrial investment, including major projects like the Hyundai Steel facility in Ascension Parish. These projects bring thousands of construction jobs and hundreds of high-paying permanent positions.

When global companies invest at this level, it sends a clear signal:

The region is stable, competitive, and positioned for long-term growth.

Housing & Community Development

We also discuss key residential projects, including:

• Parkway Lakes by Level Homes
• Jaw Place & Jaw Crossing mixed-use development
• Affordable housing near employment centers
• A much-needed 55+ active adult community (Morningside)

These projects support families, retirees, professionals, and long-term residents creating a healthier and more balanced housing market.

Infrastructure & Walkability

From Perkins Road improvements to new bike paths and lighting, Baton Rouge is finally investing in walkability and quality-of-life upgrades that matter to modern buyers.

Why This Matters for Relocation & Real Estate

Historically, the best real estate opportunities happen before projects are fully completed when jobs are arriving, confirms confidence, but prices haven’t fully adjusted yet.

Whether you’re:

• Relocating for work
• Looking for a long-term home
• Downsizing or retiring
• Investing ahead of growth
