1891 Map of Dallas
USGS Topo · Published 1891About this map
Dallas and its surrounding countryside are captured here during a pivotal decade of expansion, long before the city’s footprint covered the county. The map highlights the early separation between the main city and Oak Cliff, with the Trinity River and its expansive bottomlands serving as a natural divide. This era is defined by a dense radial network of railroads, including the Texas and Pacific Railway and the Houston and Texas Central Railway, which spurred the growth of satellite settlements like Richardson and Garland.
