1957 Map of Opelousas

About this map

Opelousas serves as the focal point of this St. Landry Parish survey, shown here at a moment of mid-century growth. The town's urban density is detailed with landmarks like the Academy of Immaculate Conception, Holy Ghost Sch, and the General Hospital, while the St Landry Parish Airport and a Drive-in Theater mark the edges of town. The surrounding prairie is defined by a dense network of bayous and man-made waterways, most notably the Bayou Boeuf-Cocodrie Diversion Channel and its associated Spoil Bank.
