1967 Map of Martello Castle

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Martello Castle landmark stands as a historical sentinel near the shoreline of Lake Borgne, anchoring this coastal segment of St. Bernard Parish. The mid-century landscape is defined by its complex hydrography, where the Mississippi River - Gulf Outlet Canal is shown under construction, cutting a deep linear path through the marshy terrain. This massive engineering project is accompanied by a significant Spoil Area and a newly installed Levee system, reflecting the intensive coastal modifications of the era.
