Excerpt: Highways in Louisiana U.S. Highway 90, one of the major east-west U.S. Highways in the Southern United States, runs through southern Louisiana for 304.8 miles (490.5 km), serving Lake Charles, Lafayette, New Iberia, Morgan City and New Orleans. Much of it west of Lafayette and east of New Orleans has been supplanted by Interstate 10 (I-10) for all but local traffic, but the section between Lafayette and New Orleans runs a good deal south of I-10. The stretch between Lafayette and New Orleans is planned as a southern extension of Interstate 49 and is signed as "future corridor I-49." This part of the highway is important to the offshore petroleum industry, as it connects the cities of Lafayette and New Orleans to the port cities along the coast. Most of U. S. 90 from New Iberia to New Orleans, that has not already been improved to interstate grade, is mainly an expressway, excepting the towns traversed through, that can be easily upgraded to freeway standards. The freeway east of Morgan City, bypassing Houma to the north, was originally built as Louisiana Highway 3052; US 90 was shifted to it from its former alignment (now Louisiana Highway 182) once it was completed. US 90 replaced almost all of the Louisiana section of the San Diego-St. Augustine Old Spanish Trail. It was also designated Louisiana Highway 2 until the 1955 renumbering. A long section of the old road, from Lafayette to northeast of Raceland, is now Louisiana Highway 182. U.S. Route 90 enters Louisiana at the Texas line over the Sabine...

The coasts of today's American South feature luxury condominiums, resorts, and gated communities, yet just a century ago, a surprising amount of beachfront property in the Chesapeake, along the Carolina shores, and around the Gulf of Mexico was owned and populated by African Americans. Blending social and environmental history, Andrew W. Kahrl tells the story of African American–owned beaches in the twentieth century. By reconstructing African American life along the coast, Kahrl demonstrates just how important these properties were for African American communities and leisure, as well as for economic empowerment, especially during the era of the Jim Crow South. However, in the wake of the civil rights movement and amid the growing prosperity of the Sunbelt, many African Americans fell victim to effective campaigns to dispossess black landowners of their properties and beaches. Kahrl makes a signal contribution to our understanding of African American landowners and real-estate developers, as well as the development of coastal capitalism along the southern seaboard, tying the creation of overdeveloped, unsustainable coastlines to the unmaking of black communities and cultures along the shore. The result is a skillful appraisal of the ambiguous legacy of racial progress in the Sunbelt.
