1970 Map of Breaux Bridge
USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
Breaux Bridge and the winding Bayou Teche anchor this 1970 landscape, where the agricultural traditions of St. Martin Parish meet modern industrial expansion. The map details a complex hydraulic network including the Vermilion River, Lake Grande Marie, and numerous coulees like Coulee Cocodrie that drain this low-lying territory. The intersection of the Southern Pacific and Missouri Pacific railroads highlights the area's role as a transportation hub, while the emergence of the Anse La Butte Oil and Gas Field indicates the transition from a purely agrarian economy to one supported by natural resources.
