Las Cruces and the Mesilla Valley are defined by a complex irrigation network of drains, canals, and laterals that sustain the agriculture of the Rio Grande basin. This modern survey illustrates the intensive water management system, including the Leasburg Canal, Mesilla Drain, and Alamo Drain, which interlace with established settlements like Mesilla and San Ysidro. The eastern portion of the map is dominated by the sprawl of Las Cruces, the New Mexico State University - Main Campus, and institutional landmarks such as the Dona Ana County Courthouse.
