Residences at SpringRidge

The Holy Trinity Catholic Church honors the tradition of the Catholic faith and keeps an eye on the future, as celebrations such as weddings, baptisms and ordinations offer hope for the Church in the coming years. However forward looking those are, this church has the distinction of being the oldest church in the area. It is awe-inspiring to stand in its doorway, with the rich stone architecture guarding the altar and tabernacle like a formidable fortress. Still, the color and spectacle of the detailed stained glass windows brings a color and depth to the atmosphere that, like the Salvation that is celebrated here daily, reminds the congregation of God's beauty and serenity.

Whether it's talented locals or world class, seasoned performers, they all feel at home when they're performing at the Shreveport Opera. Some of the season's many notable productions include Don Giovanni, La Boheme and Tosca. The entertainment venue is also the site for several book fairs and other fund-raising projects throughout the year in an effort to keep the art of opera alive in Shreveport.

Before there was the internet or computers of any kind, photos and manuscripts joined disciplined engineering practice and mathematics to aid in construction plans for important city buildings. The documented preliminary work that went into the planning and execution of these projects is housed at the Karpeles Manuscript Library. It's not only a history lesson, but a testament to our forefathers' ingenuity and perseverance to establish the landmarks that serve as anchors of Shreveport's history.

Whether you wish to walk along the shores of Cross Lake or take a boat out for a sail, the aquatic scenery and fresh air will help to create the perfect scenario for a romantic date. If you're out around sunset, don't forget to bring your camera, as the Shreveport twilights are unbelievably picturesque.
