1970 Map of Cypress

About this map

Cypress and the surrounding Harris County prairie are captured here during a period of transition, where established ranching and agricultural roots meet the expanding reach of Houston. The Southern Pacific railroad corridor serves as the primary axis for development, passing through the settlement and near the historic waters of Hot Wells. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of drainage, from the prominent Cypress Creek to the southern expanse of Addicks Reservoir, reflecting the region's relationship with the Gulf Coast watershed.
