About this map

The small settlement of Hub anchors this agricultural portion of Parmer County during the mid-1960s. The landscape is defined by its industrial and civic utility, centered around the Hub Community Hall and local infrastructure like the Substation. Near the northern boundary, the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts across the territory, signaling the importance of rail transport for the region's produce.

Evidence of the local economy is scattered throughout the survey, including a Cotton Gin and several points marked as Well. Numerous shallow depressions and basins are depicted across the terrain, interspersed with a modern Pipeline and a Borrow Pit. This detailed view captures a specific era of Texas High Plains development where water management and industrial transit intersected with small-town community centers.
