2012 Map of Bay Dosgris

About this map

The intricate coastal landscape of Jefferson Parish is defined by a labyrinth of waterways and industrial sites as they appeared in 2012. Large water bodies such as Little Lake and Hackberry Bay dominate the topography, while a dense network of smaller channels like Manila Bayou, Snail Bayou, and Bayou Casse-Tete weave through the marshland. This area is a critical hub for petroleum extraction, featuring expansive operations at the Plum Point Oil and Gas Field, South Little Lake Oil and Gas Field, Coffee Bay Oil Field, and Bay De Chene Oil Field. Evidence of local heritage remains at the Alombro Cem, a notable landmark for genealogists. The map illustrates the specialized infrastructure of the Gulf coast, where water and industry meet in locations like Saint Joseph Bay and along the shores of Bayou Dosgris and Bayou Saint Denis.
