USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
The winding course of Oyster Creek and the Brazos River define the development of this Brazoria County landscape in the early 1960s. The mid-century expansion of Lake Jackson and Clute is visible through the burgeoning residential streets like Azalea St and Magnolia Way, contrasted against the agricultural and correctional operations nearby. The presence of the Department of Correction (Retrieve Unit) and the Clemens Unit illustrates the institutional use of the expansive coastal plains.
