USGS Topo · Published 1959About this map
The agricultural and industrial landscapes of the Rio Grande Valley are clearly defined here, centered on the growing towns of Elsa and Edcouch. This mid-century survey captures a complex irrigation and drainage network essential to the local economy, marked by numerous Elevated Ditch segments and the North Floodway. A dense web of rail lines, including the Missouri Pacific, Southern Pacific, and Texas And New Orleans, underscores the region's historical role as a shipping hub for produce and petroleum.
