Welcome to the American Retrospective, a look back in time to the Twentieth Century, and the many good things that characterized those amazing years. We focus on architecture, historic preservation, landscapes, nostalgia, photography, postcards and related items that tell the story of the places, and people, that so many of us remember well.

In particular, this Shreveport site will deal with memories of this great North Louisiana city in the Ark-La-Tex, from the old motels on US80 to the architecture of Texas Street to cruising the shops and residences on Line Avenue, and lots of points in between! View our gallery of Shreveport photographs, connecting the present to the past.
