University Lakes Project
Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards announced on Nov. 13, 2019, that a coalition of state, local, and university officials was formed to restore the six lakes surrounding the LSU campus. The coalition includes the State of Louisiana, the City of Baton Rouge, BREC, LSU and the LSU Athletics Department, and the Baton Rouge Area Foundation. The governor also announced that the LSU Real Estate and Facilities Foundation, an affiliate of the LSU Foundation, will be in charge of issuing the contracts and will oversee work that includes dredging all six lakes, building a bridge at May Street, and building sidewalks and bike paths around the lakes.
The University Lakes Project is being led through University Lakes, LLC. This LLC was established by the LSU Real Estate and Facilities Foundation, an affiliate of the LSU Foundation, to support efforts to restore the six lakes surrounding the LSU campus.
