2020 Map of Indian Beach

About this map

Lake Pontchartrain dominates the northern horizon of this Jefferson Parish landscape, where the massive Lake Pontchartrain Causeway begins its transit across the water. The suburban development of Kenner and surrounding residential districts like Bissonet Plaza and Westgate occupy the land between the lakeshore and the sprawling grounds of the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport. This modern layout reveals a dense grid of residential streets, such as Vintage Dr and W Esplanade Ave, intersected by drainage infrastructure including the Bissonet Canal. Along the shoreline to the east, the communities of Bucktown, Indian Beach, and Bonnabel Place sit behind the protective levee system. The map provides a detailed look at the infrastructure supporting this low-lying region, from the higher ground of the airport to the various neighborhood schools and colleges like Herzing College that serve these established Louisiana suburbs.
