1953 Map of Longhorn

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The suburban expansion of northern San Antonio is captured here during the early 1950s, a period when rural ranching landscapes were beginning to integrate with modern infrastructure. Local landmarks like Redland Ranch and Wetmore are positioned alongside the newly developed San Antonio International Airport, formerly Alamo Field. The map reveals a transition from agricultural land to civic spaces, evidenced by the Bexar County Sch for Girls and Northeast High Sch situated near emerging residential blocks.
