About this map

Humble appears as a burgeoning oil and rail hub just a few years after the initial Texas oil boom, its grid dominated by industrial infrastructure including numerous Oil Tanks and Tanks. The landscape is a network of watercourses and early transit corridors, where the Atascocita Ferry Road and Houston-Westfield Road provide terrestrial passage through the low-lying terrain of Greens Bayou and Renhardt Bayou. Rural life is anchored by the Higgs School in the north, while smaller settlements like Bender and Mt Houston sit along the heavy timber of the railroad lines.
