1963 Map of New Orleans
USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
Bayou Teche and the Mississippi River anchor this expansive mapping of the Louisiana coast during the mid-twentieth century. The intricate transition from the sugar-cane-growing inland parishes to the marshy littoral is documented through an extensive network of waterways and early oil industry infrastructure. Significant settlements like Houma, New Iberia, and Morgan City serve as hubs for commerce, while the rail lines of the Southern Pacific and Texas and Pacific railroads illustrate the vital transport links connecting the Gulf to the interior.
