1955 Map of North Shreveport

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The northern edge of Shreveport meets the industrial and agricultural landscape of Caddo Parish in this mid-1950s study. The Red River and Twelvemile Bayou define the hydrology here, with the Twelvemile Bayou Waterway Project and a complex system of levees and borrow pits indicating active flood control and navigation efforts. Transportation is dominated by the Texas and Pacific and Kansas City Southern railroads, which service the growing suburbs and the Shreveport Oil Field.
