2013 Map of Moonshine Hill

About this map

Moonshine Hill and the surrounding residential developments characterize this landscape north of Houston, where suburban expansion meets the varied waterways of the Gulf Coastal Plain. The map documents a dense network of modern villages and neighborhoods like Elm Grove Village, Greentree Village, and Pinehurst of Atascocita, many of which border the expansive Lake Houston. To the north, the community of Porter is situated near White Oak Cr, while the historic White Oak Cem remains as a link to the area's earlier rural heritage. The eastern boundary is defined by the E Fork San Jacinto River, crossed by the McKay Bridge. This survey illustrates the intricate drainage systems that define the region, from large reservoirs like Lake Houston to smaller named channels such as Peach Cr, Caney Cr, and Blackland Gully.
