Shreveport- Bossier, definitely needs an Whole Food Store. Is there any new high rise condo in SBC? What are the major new subdivision in the area. South Lakeshore Drive could be a monster for development!!!1 Is Jesuit High School still open there. Hearne & Jewela Rd need some sprucing Whatever happened to Stan'sRecord Shop- Probably the greatest record shop of all time North Shreveport could be a monster also. What major oil companies are HQ in SBC since you say it took it on the chin during the oil bust. The bust was over 20 years ago

In a way I agree with the previous comment but Shreveport has so much upside potential. Shreveport most of all has lost it great business and educational talent to Atlanta, Dallas and Houston. Here in San Antonio it is amazing how much talent here is from Shreveport. Wake up Shreveport get your butt in gear ans start competing for those major conventions and industry looking to relocate. You have GM go after ofther auto plant like Tenn and Alabama has. Redevelop Milam street from downtown to Cross Lake. Promote your Sicilian culture there. Stop thinking about the past mend your race relation fences. the comparsion between cities was done becasue Shreveport has so much potential. Get rid of the D'Artios type mentality. Stop acting like country pumpkins when you get a restaurant chain that has been in every other city for 10 years when you already have some of the best locally owned restaurant in the country- HerbyK Brocato's etc

Shreveport- Bossier was about the same size of Austin in 1960. What happened? Yes the Fairfield and Line Ave areas is one tf the most beautiful in the South. Shreveport was just a lazy good ole boy towns that the other cities left it behind. I think even Bossier city is beginning to leave Shreveport in the dust. You need a good business mayor who know how tio attract businesses and industry there. Good food Poor race relations

Just a note. Living in San Antonio and visiting New Orleans, I still believe that New orleans has the shell of being the greatest city in the south. More potential up[side than Atlanta, Nashville,Houston or Dallas. Just need a developer like Trump a consultant like Rudy G to get rid of the crime.

I can't believe the city destroyed the Capt Shreve Hotel. Again the main reason Shreveport pop has not match other cities is becasue a lack of oportunities there. Shreveport should have at least 300k in the city plus a good Chamber promoting the city. One of the best meals I ever eaten was at the Ernest Restaurant and Freeman and Harris there.

Shreveport pop should be at least 300K in the city by now

What are the new Shreveport Bossier Developments in the suburban area, in particular South Shreveport? What has happen to South Park Mall area? What about Line Avenue. What about the North Market area and the Cypress Lake area. Has there been new developments int the Cross Lake area
