About this map

Lake Houston and the San Jacinto River dominate this modern landscape northeast of the city center. The map documents the extensive residential development of Atascocita and the eastern edge of Humble, showing a complex network of suburban streets and planned communities that have transformed former timberlands. To the south, the industrial and transport character of Dyersdale is evident near the Greens Bayou corridor.

Water management and natural drainage are central themes here, from the large Sheldon Reservoir to the winding course of Garners Bayou and Williams Gully. For local historians and genealogists, the Harrington Cem remains a notable landmark near Buckhorn Lake, while features like the Big Eddy and Spring Gully indicate the original hydrology of the basin before extensive flood control and urban expansion altered the terrain.
