1980 Map of North Highlands

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Red River and the sweeping waters of Cross Lake anchor this 1980 study of the northern corridor of Shreveport. The landscape is a transition from the industrial and educational hubs along Cooper Road, including the Southern University campus, to the residential expansions of North Highlands and Lake View. The northern reaches are characterized by the winding Twelvemile Bayou and the Sentell Oil and Gas Field, indicating the region's long-standing energy infrastructure. Notable for genealogists, the map identifies numerous neighborhood landmarks such as Oakland Cem, Light Hill Cem, and several local congregations like Bethel Ch and St Matthew Ch. The presence of the Kansas City Southern and Pacific railroads reveals the transit-oriented development that historically linked these communities to the larger river economy.
