1955 Map of Newman

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The Fort Bliss Military Reservation dominates this mid-1950s desert landscape, spanning the border where New Mexico and Texas meet. The settlement of Newman serves as a focal point along the state line, situated where the Southern Pacific railroad tracks cut a long diagonal across the arid basin. This era shows a landscape transitioning between traditional ranching and modern military aviation needs, evidenced by a unique Landing Strip (In Road) and a Meteorological Station near the northern boundary.
