1943 Map of Del Rio

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The border city of Del Rio serves as the focal point of this 1943 War Department survey, showing the community just as Laughlin Field was establishing its military footprint during the war years. The landscape is defined by the confluence of the Rio Grande and the Devils River, with the International Bridge providing a vital link to Coahuila, Mexico. The city's growth is anchored by San Felipe Springs and the historic San Felipe district, while the Sou Pac railroad and the Jefferson Davis Memorial Highway establish the primary east-west transportation corridors.
