Bayou Lafourche serves as the central artery for this coastal landscape, where the settlement of Leeville occupies a critical junction in the wetlands of Lafourche Parish. This 2024 survey captures the intricate plumbing of the marsh, showing how human engineering has shaped the delta through deep-water cuts like the Southwestern Louisiana Canal, the Havoline Canal, and Greys Canal. The transition from old infrastructure to modern transport is evident in the parallel paths of Old State Rte 1 and the LA 1 Toll Rd.
