About this map

Oakdale serves as the central hub of this 1935 survey, appearing at a critical junction of industry and transport in Allen Parish. The town's grid is bisected by the Missouri Pacific Railroad and the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe Railroad, reflecting its importance as a shipping point. The surrounding landscape is defined by the winding course of the Calcasieu River and a dense network of timber infrastructure. Numerous sections of Logging Railroad and segments of Old Logging Railroad Grade crisscross the terrain, marking the legacy of the local lumber industry. Beyond the industrial corridors, local life is anchored by landmarks such as the Oak Hill Ch to the north and the Oakdale Airport to the west. Waterways like Cherrywinche Creek and Curtis Creek drain the timberlands, illustrating the natural drainage patterns that dictated the placement of rail lines and early roads.
