Overview
Located at 8924 Jewella Avenue in Shreveport, Louisiana, the Summer Grove Baptist Church property presents an exceptional mixed-use redevelopment opportunity at the site of the former South Park Mall. Originally developed in the mid-1970s by Simon Development of Minneapolis, Minnesota, this landmark property was designed as a major regional shopping mall serving the greater Shreveport-Bossier market and surrounding areas of Northwest Louisiana.
The property encompasses approximately 80 acres and includes more than 851,000 square feet of existing improvements, offering substantial scale and flexibility for a wide range of redevelopment possibilities. Positioned with approximately 3,050 feet of frontage along Highway 3132, the site benefits from outstanding visibility and accessibility, with immediate connections to U.S. Interstate 20, U.S. Interstate 49, and the broader regional transportation network. Few properties in the market offer this level of access and centrality, making it one of the most strategically located large-scale redevelopment sites in the region.
Zoned C-UV (Community Urban Village), the property is ideally suited for adaptive reuse and mixed-use redevelopment, allowing for a broad spectrum of commercial, institutional, residential, entertainment, hospitality, and community-oriented uses. Its location provides unmatched convenience to virtually every major population center in Northwest Louisiana, while also offering strong connectivity to the rapidly expanding residential communities of DeSoto Parish, located just five miles to the south.
Additionally, the property benefits from its close proximity to Shreveport Regional Airport, which offers approximately 20 to 22 direct flights daily to major markets including Atlanta, Dallas, Denver, and Houston, along with low-fare carrier service to destinations such as Los Angeles, Florida’s Gulf Coast, Nashville, and Orlando. This level of air service significantly enhances the site’s appeal for regional users, destination-oriented development, and institutional investment.
Approximately 25 years ago, Summer Grove Baptist Church acquired the property from Simon Development and transformed a significant portion of the former mall into an outstanding worship and ministry campus. The church constructed a modern sanctuary facility featuring state-of-the-art worship, production, and entertainment-related amenities, demonstrating the property’s successful adaptability and long-term viability for large-scale reimagined use.
Today, this property represents a rare opportunity to reposition one of Shreveport’s most recognizable landmark sites into a dynamic new mixed-use destination, capitalizing on its scale, infrastructure, strategic location, and proven redevelopment potential.
