1969 Map of Hobbs East

About this map

The East Hobbs Oil Field dominates the landscape at the intersection of Lea Co, New Mexico, and Gaines Co, Texas. This 1969 survey reveals a transitional period for Hobbs, where the expanding street grid meets a landscape defined by petroleum infrastructure and drainage patterns like Seminole Draw. The residential blocks of eastern Hobbs are densely packed with civic institutions, including Highland Jr High Sch, Taylor Sch, and Coronado Sch, reflecting the community's mid-century growth. Religious life is anchored by several notable congregations, such as Taylor Memorial Ch and Jefferson St Ch.
