1966 Map of Culebra Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The western outskirts of San Antonio are undergoing a mid-century transformation on this sheet, defined by the expanding footprints of Lackland Air Force Base and Medina Base. While the northwestern corner retains a more rural character around Culebra Hill and the Cordi-Marian Villa Convent and Chapel, the southeastern quadrant is characterized by rapid suburban development. Planned residential communities such as Lackland Heights, Kelland Heights, and Westwood Village emerge alongside institutional landmarks like the Southwest Foundation for Research and Education. This era shows a landscape in flux, where traditional sites like the Sociedad Cem sit near modern infrastructure, including the John Jay High Sch and several large gravel operations. The network of creeks, including Medio Creek and Culebra Creek, remains a constant geographic thread through both the old ranch lands and the new air base housing.
