1974 Map of Carville
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
The Mississippi River creates a massive meander through the heart of the river parishes, defining the boundary between Iberville Parish and Ascension Parish. This landscape is dominated by the long-lot land patterns characteristic of colonial French settlement, where narrow strips of land stretched back from the riverbanks. The National Leprosarium sits on the eastern bank near Carville, a significant site for medical history. Across the water, the Laurel Ridge and Gas Field and the Old Canal show the industrial evolution of the region.
