1967 Map of Des Allemands
USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
Bayou des Allemands serves as the central artery for this coastal landscape, where the intricate network of the Louisiana wetlands meets industrial expansion. The settlement of Des Allemands sits at a critical crossing point of the Southern Pacific railroad, flanked by the Paradis Oil and Gas Field to the north and the Bayou des Allemands Oil and Gas Field to the south. This era is defined by an extensive system of numbered waterways, from Canal No 24 down to Canal No 9, which cut through the marsh to facilitate resource extraction and drainage. Local community life is anchored by landmarks like Great Antioch Church and the Bayou Gauche Cemetery, while the presence of a Refinery and a Shell Mound Gem speaks to the region's complex geological and industrial history.
