Des Allemands Allemands PO sits at a critical junction of rail and water in this 1932 survey of the Louisiana wetlands. The settlement is positioned where the Southern Pacific railroad and the Southern Pacific Highway cross the wide Bayou Des Allemands, which drains into Petit Lac Des Allemands. This area reveals a highly organized landscape of reclamation and drainage, evidenced by the numbered canal system, ranging from Canal No 3 to Canal No 24, which cuts through the marshy terrain between the bayou and the Crawford Highway.
