About this map

Longview dominates the northwestern corner of this East Texas survey, where residential streets like Oakdale Ave and Ridgelea Ave extend toward the eastern industrial and educational corridors. The presence of LeTourneau Univ marks a significant institutional footprint just north of where the landscape transitions into the river bottomlands. The Sabine River carves a meandering path through the center of the sheet, creating a wide riparian zone filled with wetlands and smaller water bodies such as Mitchell Lake and Lutes Lake.

South of the river, the settlement of Lakeport sits adjacent to the East Texas Regional Airport, reflecting the mid-century infrastructure developments of the region. This area is characterized by a mix of dispersed rural communities like Estes and Gum Springs and significant water management features, including the Ferguson Cr Reservoir and the northern reaches of Lake Cherokee. Genealogists will find the Post Oak Cem and Perry-Clay Cem preserved as vital links to the area's local history.
