1925 Map of Brownwood 3-b

About this map

The city of Brownwood serves as a thriving rail and transit hub in the mid-1920s, defined by the convergence of the St Louis San Francisco and Fort Worth and the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe railroads. The town's grid expands toward the banks of Adams Br and Pecan Bayou, while the surrounding countryside maintains a network of rural education and worship. This document represents an early use of aerial photography from the Army Air Service to refine topographic details. Notable landmarks like the Country Club suggest the era's social development, while established country institutions such as Steppes Creek Church, Delaware School, and Woodland Heights School anchor the outlying agricultural communities. The terrain transitions from the developed streets into the meandering drainage of Lewis Creek and the southern Lewis Valley.
