Shreveport is a city in northwest Louisiana. Downtown, the Sci-Port Discovery Center features an IMAX dome and hands-on science exhibits. Spring Street Historical Museum explores local history in a restored 19th-century bank. Several Riverboat casinos line the Red River. Surrounded by gardens and trails, R.W. Norton Art Gallery displays paintings, sculpture and rare books.

Shreveport is the parish seat of Caddo Parish. Portions of the city extend into neighboring Bossier Parish, bordering Bossier City. Shreveport sits on a low elevation overlooking the Red River. Shreveport, since the mid-1990s, has been a major gambling center with a modest downtown skyline. The “Streetscape” project, inspired by the coming of riverboat gaming, gave Shreveport’s downtown traditional brick sidewalks, statues, sculptures, and mosaics.
