Laidback, Southern neighborhood in historic Shreveport
On the outskirts of Shreveport, Louisiana, Jenkins-Pinecroft is a community of subdivisions with laidback Southern charm. “It’s a quiet, residential neighborhood,” says Danny Lowery, a Realtor with Titan Property Network LLC. “But it’s also near shopping and restaurants; anything you need is minutes away on Mansfield Road.” Founded in 1835, Shreveport is the fifth oldest city in Louisiana, and the town’s amenities reflect its storied history: museums, festivals and monuments like the Lead Belly statue downtown. “Shreveport offers big city convenience with a small-town atmosphere.”
