1957 Map of Yscloskey

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Shell Beach and Yscloskey anchor this coastal landscape where the wetlands of St. Bernard Parish meet the open waters of Lake Borgne. The map documents a critical transition in the Louisiana marsh, centering on the historical site of Old Fort Beauregard and the early settlements of Alluvial City and Hopedale. This era shows the intricate network of natural waterways, such as Grand Bayou and Bayou Batola, alongside man-made interventions like Jahnckes Ditch and the extensive La Loutre Spoil Bank.
