About this map

McKnight State Sanatorium and the surrounding ranchlands of Tom Green County define this mid-century landscape along the North Concho River. The map captures the specialized local economy of the late 1950s, showing the intersection of healthcare, large-scale livestock operations like the Turner Ranch Headquarters, and the transport infrastructure of the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe railroad. In the southeast, the newly formed San Angelo Reservoir has altered the drainage of Grape Creek and Bald Creek, reflecting the era's significant water management projects.
