Lake Pontchartrain meets the urban grid of New Orleans in this survey of the northern shoreline. The landscape is defined by its complex water management and transportation infrastructure, featuring the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal and the Orleans Outfall Canal. Historically significant sites like Spanish Fort and Bayou St John stand alongside mid-century institutional developments, including the Univ of NO (East Campus) and Southern University (New Orleans Branch).
