An Update On The Proposed New Baseball Stadium In Shreveport

Shreveport Mayor Tom Arceneaux gave an update on the proposed new baseball stadium coming to Shreveport that former Mayor Perkins announced last year.

Mayor Arceneaux says REV Entertainment is in the planning phase and the city is in the feasibility phase. According to KTBS-TV, the project requires significant public investment and Shreveport is looking for where that public investment would come from. The city is leaning towards public private partnerships.

“The question is, do we have the wherewithal and do the projections indicate that we would be able to do it. So we have a very cooperative relationship with Rev. They have done some additional work. We’re well beyond one PowerPoint slide down. And as a result of that, it is very intriguing to me and we’re trying to work to see if it’s something that we’re able to do. But we’re a long way away from being able to say one way or another,” said Arceneaux.
