1954 Map of Austin
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
Austin and the surrounding Central Texas counties are documented here just as the post-war era transformed the region's capital and its agricultural hinterlands. The city's footprint is anchored by Bergstrom Air Force Base and the distinctive geological boundary of the Balcones Escarpment, which separates the eastern plains from the Jollyville Plateau. This 1:250,000 scale survey captures the dense network of rail lines that sustained the cotton and cattle economies, including the Missouri Pacific RR and Southern Pacific RR serving hubs like Bryan and Taylor.
