1938 Map of Luling
USGS Topo · Published 1938About this map
Mississippi River commerce and the low-lying wetlands of St Charles Parish define this landscape during the mid-1930s. The survey illustrates the critical relationship between the river and the rail infrastructure that fueled the local economy, including the Illinois Central Railroad and the Southern Pacific Railroad. Notable riverfront settlements such as Kenner, Destrehan, and Luling appear along the levees, showing their proximity to the water and the intricate network of drainage canals like the Sellers Canal and Outfall Canal that manage the surrounding marshland.
