1960 Map of Mabank

About this map

Mabank sits at the intersection of the Southern Pacific railroad and regional roadways, serving as a hub near the three-way border of Kaufman, Van Zandt, and Henderson counties. The landscape shows a distinct shift in land use following the development of the Cedar Creek Reservoir, which dominates the western and southern reaches of the sheet. The expansion of the reservoir shoreline is visible in the emergence of waterfront communities like Enchanted Oaks, contrasting with the more established inland agricultural patterns around Pauline and Eustace.
