1944 Map of Empire
USGS Topo · Published 1944About this map
Mississippi River transport and coastal industry define this 1944 survey of the lower Plaquemines Parish delta. The No & LC RR line runs parallel to the river's western bank, connecting riverside settlements like Port Sulphur, Homeplace, Nairn, and Tropical Bend. These communities are protected by an extensive levee system, with the massive Pointe A La Hache Relief Outlet dominating the upper reach.
