1978 Map of Lake Catherine

About this map

The Ouachita River corridor dominates this late-1970s landscape, defined by the industrial and recreational infrastructure surrounding Lake Catherine. The impoundment is anchored by the Remmel Dam, while developments like Diamondhead and Shorewood Hills reflect the mid-century growth of residential and leisure communities along the shoreline. Industrial footprints are evident at the eastern edge near Jones Mills and the extensive Mines and Quarries located north of the water, illustrating the area's dual role as a resource extraction zone and a public retreat.
