2022 Map of Addicks

About this map

Barker Reservoir dominates the landscape of this western Harris County study, serving as a critical piece of water management infrastructure where Buffalo Bayou meets several local tributaries. The map reveals a transition from the dense suburban expansion of Houston into specialized residential and industrial zones, punctuated by historical family landmarks. Several small burial grounds, including the Groschke Family Cem and the Koch-Schmidt Cem, are preserved amidst the modern grid of residential streets and schools like the Houston Community College Katy Campus. The network of watercourses, such as Bear Creek, Langham Creek, and Dinner Creek, illustrates the natural drainage patterns that have historically shaped development near the unincorporated communities of Barker and Addicks. This survey provides a precise look at the area's infrastructure, from the West Houston Airport to the intricate residential road networks that continue to expand west of the city center.
