1975 Map of Bossier City

About this map

The Red River meanders in dramatic oxbows across this mid-1970s orthophotoquad, defining the physical boundary between Shreveport and Bossier City. This aerial-based survey provides a photographic perspective of the region's mid-century expansion, showing the dense residential patterns that pushed northward toward Brownlee. The southern portion of the image is dominated by the sprawling infrastructure of Barksdale Air Force Base, where runways and support facilities contrast with the winding river and agricultural fields to the north. Unlike traditional topographic maps, this imagery reveals the exact footprint of industrial sites, neighborhoods, and the complex riverbank stabilization efforts along the alluvial plain.
