About this map

Hardin-Simmons University and Abilene Christian College anchor the northern expansion of Abilene during this mid-century period of growth. The map illustrates a dense institutional landscape including the Abilene State Hospital, McMurry College, and the Hendrick Home for Children. To the east, the rural character persists near the settlement of Elmdale, where the Missouri Pacific railroad cuts across the prairie towards the Taylor and Callahan County line.
