1963 Map of Plaquemine

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Plaquemine Lock serves as a critical nexus where the Plaquemine Bayou meets the winding Mississippi River, defining the industrial and maritime character of this Iberville Parish riverfront. In the early 1960s, the landscape was a blend of concentrated municipal development in Plaquemine and expansive agricultural estates. The map documents several significant historic holdings, including Cottage Plantation, St Louis Plantation, and Evergreen Plantation, many with their own landing sites like Broussard Landing.
