1956 Map of Amarillo East

About this map

The city of Amarillo serves as a critical junction for the High Plains rail economy, where the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific, the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe, and the Fort Worth and Denver railroads converge. This mid-century survey captures a period of significant urban expansion, with purple-tinted updates illustrating the residential growth pushing south toward Zita and the Potter Co Randall Co line. The urban landscape is dense with educational and religious institutions, ranging from St Marys Academy to the sprawling grounds of Amarillo College.
