Biographical / Historical

The Bayou Teche Project was conducted by the Department of Architecture at the University of Southwestern Louisiana (now the University of Louisiana at Lafayette) during the Fall 1985 semester. Edward J. Cazayou, Head of the Architecture Department, and Professor Russel Dupuis worked with fourth and fifth year architecture students to study the soil, vegetation, fish and wildlife, climate, and history of the bayou. The group also looked at the bayou’s historical role as a transportation route. The towns and villages along Bayou Teche are Morgan City, New Iberia, Franklin, Loreauville, Baldwin, St. Martinville, Parks, Breaux Bridge, and Jeanerette.
