About this map

Cross Lake and the meandering path of the Red River define the landscape north of Shreveport in this 1960 revision. The transition from the dense urban grid of the city, featuring numerous educational institutions like Central Jr High Sch and Allendale Sch, to the agricultural and swampy bottomlands is sharp. Extensive water management infrastructure, including the Soda Lake Canal and various project levees, illustrates the ongoing efforts to control the flood-prone basin of Twelvemile Bayou.
