2016 Map of Lorena

About this map

The growing suburban corridor south of Waco is documented here as it appeared in the mid-2010s, showing the rapid development between Hewitt, Robinson, and Lorena. This region, once defined by ranching and cotton farming, is structured by the Interstate 35 corridor, which serves as a central spine for the landscape's modern evolution. While residential subdivisions like Woodway and Ritchie expand into former rural lands, the map preserves the location of older landmarks such as Lawson Cem. The drainage patterns of Bull Hide Cr and Castleman Cr provide a natural framework that still influences local infrastructure. Several private airfields, including Heathrow Airport and Rabbit Run Airport, suggest the decentralized, modern connectivity of this McLennan County area, while older sites like Atco recall the region's industrial transitions.
