1930 Map of East Brownsville

USGS Topo · Published 1930

About this map

Fort Brown stands at the edge of the Rio Grande during a period of significant borderlands development in South Texas. This 1930 survey, compiled in part from aerial photographs, reveals a landscape defined by the intricate winding of ancient river channels or resacas, such as Resaca de la Palma and Resaca del Rancho Viejo. These water features dictated the layout of local farms and infrastructure, including the historic Palo Alto Battlefield to the north.
