1946 Map of Lacassine
USGS Topo · Published 1946About this map
The low-lying wetlands and agricultural prairie of the Jefferson Davis Parish and Calcasieu Parish border are defined here by a complex network of man-made waterways and rail lines. The Southern Pacific and Missouri Pacific railroads serve as primary transportation arteries, with Lacassine as a focal point along U S Highway No 90. The landscape is heavily modified by drainage and irrigation projects, including the extensive Louisiana Canal, the Farmers Land and Canal Co Canal, and the Indian Bayou Canal, which support the local rice-growing economy.
