1954 Map of Flake

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Bolivar Peninsula stretches between the Gulf of Mexico and Galveston Bay, showcasing a coastal landscape defined by maritime infrastructure and emerging settlements in the mid-20th century. The settlement of Flake and the developing area of Crystal Beach are the primary points of habitation along the narrow strip of land. A significant historical marker is found in the Old Railroad Grade running parallel to the coastline, which traces the former path of rail transit along the peninsula before it was superseded by modern roads.
