The American Rose Center near Shreveport, Louisiana, at 118 acres, is the nation’s largest park dedicated to roses. Originally designed in 1974 by Jackson and Perkins, a major rose producing company, the park had fallen into neglect in recent years. In 2017, it was acquired by the American Rose Society, who has a five year plan to return it to its former glory. Everywhere in the park are signs of restoration, remodeling, repair, and updating. It’ll be quite a place again, once the work is completed. Even though it’s still a project that’s underway, a visit there is a nice way to spend a few hours. Admission is by donation, and there’s a really nice air conditioned visitor center with rest rooms available.

So many times, we’ve found an abandoned facility and wondered why the owners didn’t do something to put it back into use. It’s such a waste when an awesome building is allowed to just rot away.
The Dixie Gin near Shreveport, Louisiana, was originally built over 100 years ago from wood; and it was rebuilt in 1952 using tin. It was a real, working cotton gin; but now it’s been repurposed as an event venue that can be rented for weddings, gatherings, parties, etc. The place is beautifully landscaped, and extremely well maintained.

There is always a sense of loss, a feeling forgotten. There is nothing else here; no castles, no ancient monuments, no hills like green clouds. It is just a curve of earth, a rawness of fields. Dim, flat, desolate lands that cauterise all sorrow.
J.A. Baker, The Peregrine (1967)
