1973 Map of Barataria
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
The settlement of Barataria sits at the northern edge of this coastal landscape, marked by local community landmarks like St Anthony Ch and St John Ch. This 1970s orthophotomap reveals a transition in the Louisiana wetlands where natural bayous meet an extensive industrial infrastructure of the mid-20th century. The complex web of the Intracoastal Waterway and various man-made canals, such as the Paillet Canal and Dry Cypress Canal, segments the marshland to facilitate maritime transport and resource extraction.
