1971 Map of Estes

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The coastal shelf of Live Oak Ridge and the barrier islands of Aransas County reveal a landscape shaped by petroleum and the Southern Pacific railroad during the early 1970s. Residential developments like Palm Harbor and the appropriately named City-by-the-Sea are established along the mainland shore, while the industrial character of the region is anchored by the Carbon Black Plant and a nearby Tank Farm at Kosmos. The map documents a complex aquatic environment where the Intracoastal Waterway cuts through shallow reaches like Estes Flats and California Hole.
