About this map

Plaquemine and its complex riverfront dominate this mid-century survey, showcasing a landscape defined by the heavy meanders of the Mississippi River. The town itself is a dense hub of activity featuring the Plaquemine Lock, which provided a critical connection between the main river and Bayou Plaquemine. Surrounding the municipal center, the alluvial plains are divided into expansive land tracts and historic estates including Cottage Plantation, New Hope Plantation, and Allemania Plantation, reflecting the region's agricultural heritage.
