About this map

Biggs Air Force Base and the expansive Fort Bliss Military Reservation dominate this mid-century landscape on the edge of El Paso. The map illustrates the city's outward expansion toward the desert, with residential developments like Del Norte Heights and Hacienda Heights appearing in the southwest corner. The transition from urban center to military training grounds is marked by utility infrastructure, including a prominent Telephone line and several Pipeline corridors cutting across the arid terrain.
