About this map

Bayou Terre aux Boeufs anchors a coastal landscape defined by the intersection of traditional bayou settlements and mid-century infrastructure projects. The corridor following the Southern Railroad contains a string of communities including St Bernard, Toca, and Kenilworth, where local life is centered around institutions like St Bernard High Sch and the True Love Cem. This era shows significant civil engineering efforts, with extensive levee construction and a control structure appearing along the intricate canal network.
