The expanding eastern reaches of El Paso are documented here just as the city's suburban and industrial footprint began to push significantly into the desert landscape. Dense residential grids in neighborhoods like Del Norte Heights contrast sharply with the open military and aviation zones to the north. The map highlights the transition from established city blocks to colonias such as Las Palmas Colonia and Las Palmas Number 2 Colonia, illustrating the unique border-region settlement patterns of this period.
