About this map

Dyess Air Force Base dominates the western landscape of this mid-century Texas survey, illustrating the significant military footprint near the city limits. The expansion of Abilene is evident in the burgeoning residential grids of Crescent Heights and the presence of numerous institutions like McMurry College and the West Texas Rehabilitation Center (KRBC) Radio and TV Station. The region's infrastructure is defined by the Texas and Pacific railroad and the Veterans World War II Highway, which serve as primary east-west corridors.
