This historic pocket just west of downtown mixes long-loved cottages and brick bungalows with thoughtful infill, creating a neighborhood that feels connected to city life without losing its front-porch pace. Quick access to I‑20 and surface streets means commutes are short, and you’re minutes from everything Shreveport offers.

The arts scene hums nearby at Shreveport Common, a creative district anchored by public art, events, and green space featured at Shreveport Common’s website. Its centerpiece, Caddo Common Park, brings food trucks, yoga, and festivals to the neighborhood, as highlighted on the Caddo Common Park page. Family outings are easy, too, with riverfront favorites like Shreveport Aquarium on the Shreveport Aquarium site and hands-on learning at Sci-Port Discovery Center via the Sci-Port Discovery Center site.
