About this map

Galveston Island is depicted here during the mid-century era, defined by a series of precise numbered roadways cutting across the landscape toward the Gulf of Mexico. These routes, including Thirteenmile Road, Elevenmile Road, and Ninemile Road, provided early access to the shorelines of West Beach before the extensive modern development of the island's western end. The geography is characterized by a complex network of bays and inlets along West Bay, where named features like Eckert Bayou and Delehide Cove reach deep into the marshy interior.
