1952 Map of Brown Cedar Cut

About this map

Brown Cedar Cut serves as a critical hydrologic artery on this 1950s survey, connecting the saline waters of the Gulf of Mexico with the sheltered expanse of East Matagorda Bay. The map highlights the delicate geography of the Matagorda Peninsula, a narrow barrier of land shaped by coastal dynamics. Along the inland side of the peninsula, the Intracoastal Waterway is marked with a project depth of 12 feet, reflecting the era's focus on maintaining navigable maritime trade routes through the Texas coastal bend.
