1955 Map of Fort Bliss SE

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Fort Bliss Military Reservation dominates the northern landscape of this survey, transitioning into the expanding suburban and industrial corridors of El Paso to the south. The map documents a critical period of Cold War era growth, where the massive infrastructure of Biggs Air Force Base and the El Paso International Airport meet rising residential developments. Residential enclaves like Del Norte Heights and Hacienda Heights are shown in detail, many highlighted by purple photorevisions that track the rapid urbanization of the mid-1960s and early 1970s.
