1954 Map of Lake Arthur
USGS Topo · Published 1954About this map
Lake Arthur sits at the heart of this coastal prairie landscape, where the Mermentau River meets the expansive lake. This 1954 edition, based on 1933 field work and aerial photography, reveals a region defined by its water management and agricultural infrastructure. Numerous pump houses are scattered along the Klondike Canal and Thornwell Drainage Canal, reflecting the intensive irrigation required for the local rice-growing economy. The town site itself is shown with a detailed street grid adjacent to the Southern Pacific railroad line, serving as a vital transport link for the parish.
