About this map

The railroad junction at De Quincy defines the landscape of Calcasieu Parish in the mid-1950s, where the Kansas City Southern and Missouri Pacific lines converge. This center of transit is flanked by the Louisiana Correctional Institute to the north and a developing industrial perimeter of energy extraction. The local economy is visibly rooted in the Perkins Oil and Gas Field and the North De Quincy Oil Field, marked by numerous well sites and storage facilities like the Oil Tank located near the town center.
