About this map

Berwick Bay and the Lower Atchafalaya River anchor this mid-century survey of the Louisiana wetlands. In the 1950s, Morgan City and Berwick serve as the industrial and transportation nexus where the Southern Pacific railroad and the Old Spanish Trail cross the deep waters of the bay. The map documents a landscape defined by the convergence of major waterways, including the Plaquemine-Morgan City Alternate Waterway and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway.
