1964 Map of Boerne

About this map

Boerne serves as the focal point of this Texas Hill Country study, showing a period of transition as the town's urban footprint expands across Cibolo Creek. The landscape is defined by its characteristic hydrology and karst topography, most notably at Cascade Cavern and along the numerous tributary streams like Menger Creek and Frederick Creek. Significant local history is preserved through labels for the Herff Park Fairground and the Historical Marker near Malikoff Hill. Transportation and industry of the era are visible in the Southern Pacific railroad line and the numerous local Gravel Pits and Quarries that dot the limestone hills. Settlement patterns extend to outlying communities such as Kreutzberg and Walnut Grove, while rural life is marked by family landmarks like Phillips Cem and the Pleasant Valley Community Center.
