About this map

The Mississippi River defines the landscape of St. Bernard Parish, carving a wide arc past Chalmette and Meraux as it flows toward the Gulf. This era shows the intensive development of the riverfront, where the Southern Ry corridor and the Forty Arpent Canal parallel the water, supporting a dense network of suburban growth and industrial infrastructure. The map preserves the footprint of the Chalmette National Historical Park and the adjacent Chalmette National Cemetery, marking the site of significant local heritage.
