About this map

The Medina River carves a winding path through the northern landscape of this Bexar County region, anchoring a rural community defined by its religious and educational centers during the late 1950s. The settlement of Losoya serves as a focal point, supported by institutional landmarks such as Our Lady of Mt Carmel Ch and the South Side High Sch. Transportation and industry are marked by the Missouri Pacific railroad corridor and local extractive sites like the Gravel Pit.

Infrastructure shifts are evident in the 1970s revisions, which highlight the development of Braunig Lake and road expansions marked as Under Construction. From the Shady Oak Mission in the west to the Borregos Chapel in the east, the map captures a period of transition where traditional Texas ranchland began meeting modern utility needs, including a network of Pipelines and a prominent Radio Tower.
