About this map

Lake Pontchartrain defines the northern edge of this Jefferson Parish landscape, where the marshy shoreline of the 1930s meets a developing network of drainage and infrastructure. The map illustrates a critical period of water management, punctuated by vital installations such as Pump Sta No 1 and Pump Sta No 4. These facilities, connected by an extensive system of waterways including Canal No 1 and the Carroll Canal, were essential for the habitation of low-lying areas like Indian Beach and Bonnabel Place.
