Yeah, I laugh every time I hear one of those "community leaders" talk about how having I-49 run through downtown will ruin the neighborhood. Yeah, right.
Yeah running I-49 through Allendale will improve it.

One time I drove through Shreveport and saw a ton of people running under the overpass and some guys dressed up like aliens were walking after them. Turned out they were filming a movie. Maybe this was part of a movie and they were extras? Who knows.

I don't know much about Shreveport but I will say running interstates through urban/high density neighborhoods almost always make them worse off. They cut the flow of surface traffic and kill what businesses are left is the neighborhoods.
So while it may not be the best neighborhood, most go through cycles and gentrification almost always happens on some level. Cutting a historic working class neighborhood with local businesses in half with an interstate won't help st all.
Just my $.02 not knowing the area or neighborhood just speaking of most urban environments that have dealt with something similar

With cities people want to be in.
Who wants to gentrify Shreveport?

Crack Trap Houses?
As long as all the crack houses are there that area is gonna stay dead.
I-49 would clean it up and force that area into change.

It can't be any worse than it is now.

didn't they get rid of the shotgun houses on Sprague and that area?
Yes but that's just one small area. Everything west of Pete Harris is a complete shithole
When I was a teen we would load up a friend's 67 charger and cruise through the area. We got in multiple car chases as a result. Things kids could get away with in those days

This original FB post has blown up into a full blown race war. One side says that calling these kids bulls is racist, the other saying that the reference is made to a historic event where people run around the streets.
The ignorance has gone full retard. Thought the OT might want to revisit
