About this map

Biggs Army Airfield (Fort Bliss) anchors the northern landscape of this El Paso study, where military infrastructure meets a rapidly expanding urban grid. The presence of specialized routes like the Blackhawk Tank Trl and roads named for historic battles, such as Anzio Way and Kasserine Way, reflects the area's deep ties to army training and logistical operations. Bordering these grounds, the El Paso International Airport and the Butterfield Trl industrial corridor demonstrate the region's role as a modern transportation hub.

Residential growth is evident in the dense street networks of Del Norte Heights, which are served by local institutions like El Paso Community Coll. This era of the map captures a transition where traditional desert landmarks, such as Picacho Pass Dr, have been integrated into a complex web of arterial roads like Global Reach Dr and Old Ironsides Dr, illustrating the integration of military, commercial, and civilian life on the Texas border.
