About this map

The Rio Grande serves as the international boundary on this map of southern Laredo, where the urban grid of Webb County meets the ranchlands and colonias of South Texas. The landscape is dotted with vital water management features, including the Rafael B Garcia Reservoir, A R Sanchez Lake, and the San Ramon Fish Pond, reflecting the region's reliance on managed water sources in an arid environment.

Residential growth is evident in the layout of settlements like Larga Vista, Los Altos Colonia, and D-5 Acres Colonia, while the southern reaches near La Presa remain defined by drainage systems such as San Ildefonso Creek and Chacon Creek. This survey captures the transition from dense city streets, such as Zacatecas St and Chacota St, to the open terrain characterized by family-named landmarks like Leyendecker Lake and Minnie Martin Lake.
