- Two decades later, how did we do?
The author, Rolfe McCollister Jr., shared an old list of ideas for "Baton Rouge 2022," written after reflecting on the period between 1982 and 2002. These suggestions included developing a vibrant riverfront, renovating buildings like the Capitol House and Swaggart building, identifying economic engines such as LSU and the Pennington Center, and improving infrastructure with mass transit and sewer systems. The piece invites readers to review these goals and assess how Baton Rouge has progressed since 2002.
