Once a sleepy southern city, Baton Rouge<\/a> is now a booming metropolis. The new IBM office building has brought 800 new jobs to the area, and more and more people are choosing to live downtown, taking advantage of the growing number of restaurants, bars, and businesses. According to the Downtown Development District<\/a>, over 300 apartments will be completed this year in the downtown area alone, and there are plans for even more public greenspaces as part of Plan Baton Rouge II\u2019s Central Green concept.<\/p>\n
