Billboard promoting the New Orleans East "New Town" development, 1972. Note the darker-toned 'Current Development' portion, encompassing present-day Village de L'Est and Oak Island, as well as Venetian Isles and a sliver of Irish Bayou. The light-toned portion is now mostly Bayou Sauvage National Wildlife Refuge.
