1952 Map of Brazoria
USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
The Brazos River meanders sharply across the Texas coastal plain in this early 1950s record, creating a landscape defined by oxbow features like Horseshoe Lake and Cut-off Lake. This period of development shows the distinct separation between the town center at Brazoria and the site of Old Brazoria to the north, reflecting the shifting centers of local life. The Missouri Pacific railroad cuts a straight line through the swampy lowlands, providing a stark industrial contrast to the winding waterways of Middle Bayou and McFadden Bayou.
