1979 Map of Kingsville East

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The agricultural and industrial character of the coastal bend in the late 1970s is captured here, centered on the growing communities of Bishop and Kingsville. The landscape is a functional mix of vast Oil Fields, chemical production, and military operations at the Kingsville Naval Air Station. In the residential core of Kingsville, local civic life is documented through institutional landmarks such as the Courthouse, Hospital, and numerous neighborhood schools including Lamar Sch and St Gertrudes Sch. The Missouri Pacific railroad serves as the primary transport corridor, paralleling the boundary between Nueces and Kleberg counties. Natural drainage follows the meandering paths of Carreta Creek and San Fernando Creek, which break up the geometric precision of the surrounding oil and gas operations.
