About this map

The confluence of the West Fork San Jacinto River and the East Fork San Jacinto River dominates this early 1960s landscape as they feed into the northern reaches of Lake Houston. The geography reflects a transition from rural timber and oil lands toward suburban development, seen in residential enclaves like Dogwood Acres and Timberlane Acres. Industrial footprints are prominent in the southern portion of the sheet, where the West Riverside Oil Field and scattered Oil Wells indicate the region's energy-driven economy.
