2019 Map of Algoa

About this map

Dickinson Bayou and Mustang Bayou wind through this coastal Texas landscape, marking the transition between the urban expansion of League City and the more dispersed settlements of the interior. The survey captures the suburban development patterns of Friendswood in the north and the commercial hub of Alvin to the west. While residential streets like Choate Rd and Hastings Rd define the newer neighborhoods, older cultural markers remain, such as the Magnolia Cem and Bethany Ch. The settlement of Algoa serves as a central point where local roads and the drainage systems of the American Canal converge. This 2019 edition illustrates how modern infrastructure in the Santa Fe and Arcadia areas is superimposed upon the historic water management and agricultural drainage network of Galveston and Brazoria counties.
