1956 Map of Gordon

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Gordon sits at the junction of the Missouri Pacific railroad and local timber roads in this mid-century survey of the Beauregard Parish and Calcasieu Parish border. The landscape is defined by extensive wetlands and drainage features, notably The Glade and Tiger Glade, which feed into the meandering Beckwith Creek. The presence of the East Perkins Oil and Gas Field in the southwest corner, alongside a Pumping Station, Oil Tank, and Radio Tower, points to the region's mid-twentieth-century industrial expansion.
