1950 Map of Covington

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Bogue Falaya River and Abita River converge at Covington, forming a vital inland waterway that drains into Lake Pontchartrain. This mid-century landscape preserves the local footprint of the Illinois Central railroad as it passes through Goodbee and Covington, connecting small timber-belt settlements like Claiborne and Abita Springs. Along the northern shore of the lake, the development of Mandeville and Madisonville is clearly defined, with the Pontchartrain Causeway beginning its transit across the water.
