These 7 shopping centers started Louisiana's suburban mall era. In 2026 only some of them are still enclosed malls.

Ground was broken for Shreve City Shopping Center in Shreveport, Louisiana, in November 1958, and the center held its first opening in June 1959. It was suburban shopping of the postwar kind: a large cluster of stores on Shreveport-Barksdale Highway, laid out for people who arrived by car. Shreve City kept building after it opened.
