About this map

James Connally Airport anchors the southern portion of this landscape north of Waco, showcasing a complex of aviation infrastructure including a Filtration Plant, Aqueduct, and a large Landing Strip. The area transitions from the developing urban footprint of Lacy-Lakeview to a mosaic of farmland divided by the Missouri Kansas Texas RR and the St Louis Southwestern RR.

Local rural life is well-documented through scattered community hubs like the New Zion Ch and Gerald Ch, along with the McLennan Sch. Significant water features such as Little Tehuacana Creek and Wildcat Creek snake through the terrain, providing natural drainage for the surrounding fields. The 1970 purple revisions highlight the northward expansion of suburban development, particularly near Elm Mott and the older Abandoned RR corridors.
