1965 Map of Los Garzas

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Rio Grande defines the international boundary between the United States and Mexico in this borderland survey of Starr County. Life here centers on the river's edge, where the small settlement of Los Garzas sits within a prominent bend. The landscape is marked by the transition from the riverbank to the dry brush country of South Texas, featuring agricultural infrastructure such as a Pumping Sta and the drainage of Arroyo Quiote. Local history is anchored by the Los Garzas Cem, while the terrain label Casa Banco No 90 points to the complex history of river shifts and land tracts along the shifting Texas-Tamaulipas border. This sheet illustrates a quiet, rural reach of the border before significant modern development, dominated by cattle ranching and river-fed irrigation.
