Shreveport Common, Shreveport, Louisiana’s urban creative cultural district, has been awarded the 2023 Phoenix Award by the Society of American Travel Writers (SATW). The prestigious award was announced on September 8 at the SATW National Conference in Puerto Rico.

The Phoenix Awards recognize destinations, individuals, organizations, governments, and firms that have made exemplary efforts at environmental, cultural and/or historical conservation, preservation, and beautification of tourism sites.
