1953 Map of Brownsville
USGS Topo · Published 1953About this map
The Rio Grande delta region in the early 1950s is defined here by a complex network of irrigation floodways and international border commerce. Significant infrastructure like the Brownsville Ship Channel and the Rio Grande Valley International airport underscore the area's development as a maritime and aviation hub. Inland, the landscape is dotted with family-named outposts and legacy cattle operations such as Tecolote Ranch, Balls Ranch, and Yturria, interspersed with established agricultural centers like Raymondville and Lyford.
