1998 Map of Lake Charles SE

About this map

Holmwood sits at the northern edge of this coastal prairie landscape, where the flat terrain of the Bois Petit Plateau is defined by an extensive network of drainage and irrigation infrastructure. The map illustrates a transition between Calcasieu Parish and Cameron Parish, where the land's management is evidenced by features like the Government Ditch and the North Canal. Local life and spiritual centers are anchored by landmarks such as St Joseph Ch and Sweet Lake Ch, which serve the rural population south of the bayous. The natural hydrology of Indian Bayou and Jacques Coulee is augmented by the Sweet Lake Pumping Station, reflecting the significant human engineering required to manage water in this low-lying region at the close of the twentieth century.
