These landmarks from around Shreveport, Bossier, northwest Louisiana, and the rest of the Ark-La-Tex are so unique, you couldn't find this collection anywhere else in the world! Our landmarks are just as quirky as we are. Case in point? The 'toilet bowl' on Hwy 154 near Ringgold, LA!
I started thinking about this the other day after getting directions from a friend. When giving directions, why do women seem to use landmarks, while men tend to tell you to head north on Hwy 1? It also begs the question, what are some of our most recognizable landmarks? I came up with some easy ones, like the 'neon' Texas Street bridge, the large cross in Haughton at Central Assembly of God, or the Charlie Brown tree south of town in the middle of I-49 that's usually decorated for Christmas and Mardi Gras.
Clearly, I missed a few, so we decided to ask around about more... Now I'm going to have to ride three-plus parishes to check 'em all out!
