I’m excited to see what happens with this project. It sounds creative, innovative, and fun.

In my hometown (Alexandria, LA), our downtown is in the process of being revitalized. Some events/places that have helped this are as follows:

• Tamp & Grind – a super cool coffee shop
• The Bentley – a historic hotel has been bought, the insides will be turned into condos
• Dragon Boat Races – the Alexandria Museum of Art’s annual fundraiser on the Red River
• Zombie Walk – where folks dress up like zombies and hang out downtown (I think it’s pretty lame, but some folks like it)

Maybe these events/places will inspire us in revitalizing Shreveport’s downtown.
