Alexandria and its twin city Pineville anchor this 1955 survey of Central Louisiana, situated at a critical bend in the Red River. The region’s post-war economy is defined by a dense intersection of river commerce and heavy rail traffic, including the Kansas City Southern RR and Texas & Pacific RR. To the west, the massive Camp Polk Military Reservation and England Air Force Base signal the mid-century expansion of federal defense infrastructure across the piney woods.
