About this map

Bayou Lafourche and the Southern Pacific railroad corridor dictate the settlement pattern of this Louisiana bayou country during the mid-1960s. The dense linear development along the water, particularly through Lockport and Raceland, contrasts with the industrial footprints of the Raceland Oil and Gas Field and the Houma-Terrebonne Airport. To the southwest, the city of Houma serves as a regional hub, with its growth shown extending toward Southdown and the Intracoastal Waterway.
