Gramercy buyer questions

Why would I buy in Gramercy?

Mostly for work. If you're employed at one of the river terminals or plants in this stretch, you trade a long commute for a short one, and housing costs considerably less than in the Baton Rouge suburbs.

Is the river crossing convenient?

The Gramercy Bridge is right here, which is a genuine advantage in an area where crossings are far apart.

What about flood risk along the river road?

It depends on the levee system and the specific location. Pull the FEMA map and get an insurance quote for the exact address.
