1968 Map of Mandeville

About this map

Mandeville stands as the primary hub on the northern shore of Lake Pontchartrain in the late 1960s, defined by its grid of streets and institutional landmarks. The map documents a community transitioning toward modern suburbanization, anchored by established facilities like the Southeast Louisiana Hospital and several educational sites, including the Rosenwald Sch and Our Lady of the Lake Sch. To the west, the village of Lewisburg occupies the land between Bayou Chinchuba and the lakefront, while the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway stretches south toward New Orleans.
