Bayou Lafourche dictates the settlement pattern of this mid-century Louisiana landscape, with long, narrow ribbon-style land tracts extending perpendicularly from its banks. The map documents the dense concentration of infrastructure along the waterway, connecting Raceland in the northwest to Lockport in the southeast. This corridor is shared by the Southern Pacific railroad and numerous smaller communities like Mathews, Clotilda, and Rita.
