1998 Map of Thibodaux

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

Bayou Lafourche serves as the central artery for this late-20th-century landscape, where the historical footprint of the Louisiana plantation system remains clearly visible. Large agricultural holdings such as Laurel Valley Plantation, Rienzi Plantation, and Abby Plantation dominate the outskirts of the growing city of Thibodaux. The map documents a complex transition from sugar production to institutional and residential land use, evidenced by the presence of Francis T Nicholls State University and several modern Mobile Home Park developments. The northern reaches of the quadrangle are marked by the Bayou Onion and an extensive network of artificial waterways, including the Pipeline Canal. This 1998 survey, which includes landmark buildings verified in 1961, also highlights the industrial character of the region through the Chacahola Oil and Gas Field and various pumping stations.
