About this map

The settlement of Clodine marks the central landscape of this 1915 survey, situated along the San Antonio and Aransas Pass R R. This rail-oriented corridor, flanked by the Harris Co Fort Bend Co line, reveals the early infrastructure of the coastal prairie before modern suburban expansion. North of the primary line, the defunct route of the Texas Western R R (Abandoned) cuts across the terrain, indicating a shifting industrial landscape in the early twentieth century.

Waterways like Buffalo Bayou and Brays Bayou meander through the prairie, defining the drainage patterns that would eventually influence the region's development. Local transit was facilitated by routes such as Barker Road and Addicks Road, which connected the small hub of Clodine to the neighboring stop at Howell. These features provide a clear view of the rural township structure and railroad dependency common in Southeast Texas during this era.
