1974 Map of Bowie
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
Bowie serves as the central hub of this desert landscape in the mid-1970s, where the infrastructure of the Southern Pacific railroad and a nearby Landing Strip define the town's character as a transit point. The grid of the settlement includes a High Sch and a Substation, while the Desert Rest (Cem) lies just to the north. This survey captures a moment when the region relied heavily on subsurface resources, evidenced by the numerous instances of Well and Water Tank labels peppered across the arid terrain.
