The Red River defines the landscape of this 2018 survey, separating the urban centers of Shreveport and Bossier City while creating a complex system of islands and peninsulas. Institutional land use is prominent, ranging from the expansive Barksdale Air Force Base in the northeast to the campuses of Centenary College of Louisiana and Louisiana State Univ - Shreveport. The river's historical shifts are visible in the winding oxbows and islands like Wright Island, Anderson Island, and Bagley Island, which break up the traditional grid of the city streets.
