1965 Map of La Grulla
USGS Topo · Published 1968About this map
Rio Grande meanders along the international border in this mid-1960s study, defining a landscape marked by a complex system of bancos—land parcels separated from their parent nations by shifts in the river's course. Features like El Refugio Banco No 92, Santo Domingo Banco No 55, and Villarreales Banco No 136 illustrate the dynamic nature of the border between United States and Mexico. The agricultural and residential settlements of La Puerta, Garciasville, and La Grulla parallel the Missouri Pacific railroad, which served as a vital corridor for the region's economy.
