1973 Map of Empire
USGS Topo · Published 1992About this map
Mississippi River levees and deltaic wetlands define the landscape of Plaquemines Parish in the early 1970s. The settlement of Empire serves as a critical junction between the river and the marsh, anchored by the Empire Lock and the Doullut Canal. The map reveals the intricate network of the local oil and gas industry, with numerous offshore platforms and an extensive Pipeline system cutting through Auguste Bay and Quarantine Bay.
