1953 Map of Glen Flora

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Glen Flora and the surrounding Wharton County countryside are defined by the winding course of the Colorado River in the early 1950s. The landscape is a complex network of agricultural infrastructure, characterized by the Pierce Canal, numerous siphons, and an extensive system of levees and ditches designed to manage the low-lying terrain. Local life centers on the river and the intersecting rail lines, with the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe passing through the north and the Southern Pacific serving the southern portion of the sheet.
