Baton Rouge: Madeline Court: US 190 (This camera is located in the median of US 190)
Tucked along the Mississippi River in southeastern Louisiana, Baton Rouge is a place whose character is shaped by its low-lying river plain. Louisiana’s capital combines government institutions, university life and a working riverfront in a metropolitan area spread well beyond its historic core. The Louisiana State Capitol, completed in 1932, is a 34-storey Art Deco landmark and the tallest state capitol building in the United States. Louisiana State University gives the city another defining presence, with its principal campus beside the university lakes. Away from the river, major streets run through established residential and commercial districts beneath a substantial tree canopy.

Baton Rouge is best known in Louisiana as the state capital, symbolised by the 34-storey Louisiana State Capitol. The city occupies the east bank of the Mississippi River, where the working riverfront and port activity remain part of its identity. Built in the 1930s in the Art Deco style, the capitol is closely associated with Governor Huey P. Long, who was fatally shot there in 1935. Baton Rouge is also home to Louisiana State University; its Tiger Stadium makes college football a major feature of the local calendar.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
