1963 Map of Houma
USGS Topo · Published 1981About this map
Houma centers this Louisiana bayou landscape, revealing a dense network of waterways and early industrial development in Terrebonne Parish. The central city is defined by its position along the Bayou Black and Bayou La Carpe, while the heavy extraction economy of the mid-20th century is evident in the Hollywood Gas Field to the northwest. The map documents significant transportation infrastructure, including the Southern Pacific railroad and the engineered Houma Navigation Canal, which cut through the wetlands to facilitate regional maritime trade.
