1963 Map of Scotlandville

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Scotlandville anchors this mid-century survey of the industrial and educational corridor north of Baton Rouge. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the Mississippi River and the low-lying Devils Swamp to the expanding suburban and institutional footprints of Southern University and Leland College. The riverbank itself reveals a history of navigation and labor with landings such as Mulatto Bend Landing and Belmont Landing, while the distinct Free Negro Point marks a prominent bend in the channel.
