1952 Map of Green Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The expansive waters of Green Lake dominate the landscape of the Texas Gulf Coast in the early 1950s, surrounded by a complex network of wetlands and industrial development. This survey reveals the intense mid-century energy activity centered around the Heyser Oil Field in the northwestern quadrant, where numerous Sludge Pits, Flowing Wells, and Oil Wells are interspersed with windmills. The Missouri Pacific railroad cuts a straight line through the territory, serving the small station at Heyser and the community of Green Lake further southeast.
