1982 Map of Pascagoula South

About this map

Pascagoula and Gautier appear at a moment of significant industrial and maritime activity along the Gulf Coast. The landscape is defined by the complex convergence of the West Pascagoula River, Middle River, and Pascagoula River as they empty into Pascagoula Bay. A massive Shipbuilding Plant dominates the western riverbank, signaling the area's deep ties to naval construction and maritime trade. The city grid is densely packed with community landmarks, including numerous educational institutions like Colmer Jr High Sch and St Peter Sch, reflecting a growing mid-century population.
