2015 Map of North Shore

About this map

Lake Pontchartrain dominates this coastal landscape, which depicts the southeastern fringes of Slidell and the residential expansion into the wetlands of St. Tammany Parish. The map illustrates a highly developed waterfront, where intricate canal systems define neighborhoods like Eden Isle and Oak Harbor. These man-made waterways contrast with the natural flow of Irish Bayou and Bayou de Lesaire to the south. Historically significant transport routes, including the Old Spanish Trl, intersect with modern developments such as Spanish Trail Highlands and Yester Oaks. The southern portion of the sheet is marked by the remote Point aux Herbes and Middle Ground, highlighting the boundary between the open lake and the marshy interior. Genealogical points of interest include Fields Cem, while local geography is anchored by coastal markers like Big Point and North Shore Beach.
