1992 Map of Carville
USGS Topo · Published 1992About this map
The Mississippi River creates a massive, sweeping curve that defines this riverfront landscape at the borders of Iberville and Ascension Parishes. A significant medical landmark, the Gillis W Long Hansens Disease Center, occupies a prominent bend near Carville. The area's agricultural and industrial heritage is evident in the transition from historic grounds like the Mulberry Grove Plantation to modern energy infrastructure. The Willow Glen Oil Field and Rocky Mountain Oil and Gas Field reflect the subsurface resources of the region, while a series of Industrial Waste Ponds and a Waste Treatment Facility suggest the evolving industrial footprint of the late 20th century. Numerous small communities and churches, such as Hohen Solms and St Phillip Ch, dot the levee-protected lands, connected by the historic Carville-White Castle Ferry.
