The Christian Street Pocket Park mural incorporates the demolished foundation of an unidentified Ledbetter Heights structure. The site was suggested by a JTPA youth corps muralist who has relatives living in the area. The design was developed by artist Abby Fowler in collaboration with the JTPA muralists and depicts Louisiana Catfish swimming in a stream or river. The mural reflects the lush beauty of Shreveport's natural environment. The Project: SALAS Architectural Details for Shreveport. Completed July 31, 1998. Roberto Salas: Artistic Director. John Rivers Bicknell, Abby Fowler, Barry Galloway, Donna Service, and Buddy West: Artist Team. Guillermo Jauregui, Ruben Seja: Assistants. Janet Mighell, Luis Olivas: Volunteer Artists. Leonard Service: Project Manager.
