This upscale development was one of the priciest communities in South Louisiana when it opened in 1986,right in the middle of a local real estate depression. But it was an immediate hit. The subdivision, centered around a Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course, has been credited with stimulating development in the southeastern part of East Baton Rouge and bringing in a wave of upscale subdivisions along Highland Road.
