2015 Map of Saint Gabriel

About this map

The Mississippi River winds along the southwestern edge of this landscape, anchoring a region where low-lying wetlands meet expanding suburban reaches. In the northern section, dense residential developments such as Bluebonnet Ridge and Siegen illustrate the growth of Baton Rouge toward the parish lines. These contemporary neighborhoods stand in contrast to the more open, traditional land patterns found to the south, where the drainage networks of Bayou Manchac, Bayou Paul, and Bayou Braud define the terrain before converging near the expansive Spanish Lake.
