About this map

The Mississippi River defines this 1967 landscape of St Charles Parish, where the industrial corridor of the River Road meets the expansive wetlands of the Louisiana coast. The parish seat at Hahnville is anchored by the Courthouse and Holy Rosary Ch, while the surrounding riverfront is dotted with industrial footprints like the Refinery at Good Hope and the industrial waste sites near Taft. Parallel to the river, a complex network of drainage canals including the St Charles Canal and Hymel Canal crisscrosses the low-lying terrain toward the interior marshes. To the southwest, the Johnson Gas Field occupies the swampy reaches between Cypress Island and Bird Island. The transition from river commerce to rail-driven economy is evident in the alignment of the Texas and Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads, which link the river towns to inland settlements like Boutte and Paradis.
