About this map

Lackland Air Force Base dominates the southern landscape of this 1993 revision, showcasing the military's extensive footprint in western San Antonio. The terrain is defined by the headwaters of Potranca Creek and Medio Creek, with Culebra Hill rising to the northwest. This period reflects a significant transition as suburban expansion pushes toward the San Antonio corporate boundary, evidenced by new residential developments like Lackland Heights and Westwood Village appearing alongside older landmarks.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several educational and religious sites, including the Cordi Marian Villa Convent and Chapel and schools such as John Jay High Sch. The map also captures specialized facilities like the Southwest Foundation for Research and Education and rural features like Sociedad Cem, providing a detailed record of the area's development before further modern infill.
