2019 Map of Benjamin

About this map

Benjamin serves as the focal point of this Knox County survey, showing the town's street grid organized around thoroughfares such as N Stewart St and E Benjamin. The surrounding landscape is defined by an extensive network of water management features, including Lake Benjamin, Lake Davis, and numerous named livestock tanks like Sheep Section Tank and Quintana Tank. These tanks, along with ephemeral drainage via Dutchman Cr and Gyp Cr, illustrate the region's reliance on captured surface water for ranching operations. To the south, the Brazos River meanders across the quadrangle, crossed by the State Highway 16 Bridge. The map detail captures the rural infrastructure of the late 2010s, from named ranch roads like Put Ranch Rd to the various county roads that connect isolated holdings to the local center.
