The Mississippi River creates a dramatic series of oxbow bends through this area, defining the boundaries between Metairie, Jefferson, and New Orleans. The intricate network of drainage and industrial waterways is evident, with the Avondale Outflow Canal and Segnette Canal feeding into the wetlands south of the levee systems. A significant concentration of educational and religious institutions, such as St Mary Magdalen Sch and Rummel High Sch, highlights the dense mid-century residential growth in Jefferson Parish.
