1995 Map of Nations South Well

About this map

Fort Bliss Military Reservation dominates the northern and western reaches of this East El Paso landscape, illustrating the significant military footprint on the Chihuahuan Desert. By the mid-1990s, the area shows a transition from historical ranching outposts to suburban expansion, with several former watering spots now identified as locations like Nations South Well (Site), Hueco Water Wells (Site), and Dagger Well (Site). The growth of the Montana Vista community is evident through the presence of Montana Vista Sch and Mountain View High Sch, alongside recreational markers like a Drive-in Theater and the Drag Strip. This map captures the intersection of desert infrastructure, including extensive Pipelines, and the emerging residential grid systems that began to define the outskirts of El Paso during this era.
