1958 Map of Buda

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Missouri Pacific railroad anchors the central corridor of this Central Texas landscape, connecting the growing outskirts of Austin with the established communities of Buda and Manchaca. The map documents a period of transition where large family holdings, such as the Heissner Ranch, Rutherford Ranch, and Halifax Ranch, still define the rural stretches between the Balcones Escarpment and the coastal plains. Significant historic routes are visible, including the Old San Antonio Road and the Memorial Highway, tracing the movement patterns of early settlers.
