2012 Map of Port Sulphur
USGS Topo · Published 2012About this map
Mississippi River levees define the thin strip of habitable land in this Plaquemines Parish landscape, where the town of Port Sulphur serves as a central hub for the region's industrial and maritime operations. The map documents a complex network of waterways, including the Freeport Sulphur Company Canal and Nestor Canal, which navigate the marshlands leading toward the Gulf of Mexico. Local heritage is preserved at sites like Johnson Fisher Cem and Saint Patrick Cem, while the area's economic reliance on natural resources is evident through the Nairn Oil Field and the Cox Bay Oil and Gas Field.
