About this map

Mount Pleasant anchors this East Texas landscape, showing a detailed street grid and significant water management infrastructure in the early 21st century. The map reveals a high concentration of private and municipal reservoirs, including Old City Lake, New City Lake, and the extensive John B Stephens Junior Lake system. These impoundments, regulated by features like the Ellis Kelley Dam and Stephens Lake Number 2 Dam, characterize the drainage patterns of Hart Creek and Evans Creek as they move through the rolling terrain.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the peripheral settlements and family-named landmarks such as Gladewater, Liberty Hill, and Old Union. The distribution of burial grounds across the quadrangle, from Edwards Cemetery near the city center to the more remote Roundtree Cemetery and Liberty Hill Cemetery, provides a clear map of the area's established community roots. Transportation is defined by the intersection of major routes like Talco RD and Green Hill RD, alongside the Mount Pleasant Municipal Airport.
