1951 Map of Belle Chasse

About this map

Belle Chasse sits at the heart of this mid-century survey, where the winding Mississippi River dictates the layout of the Louisiana landscape. Along the river banks, the settlements of English Turn, Stella, and Dalcour are linked by Louisiana 42, while the industrial and transportation hub at the Sea Train Terminal and Callender Airport highlights the region's mid-century infrastructure. The eastern half of the map transitions into the coastal wetlands, dominated by the waters of Big Mar and Lake Lery.
