1958 Map of Oak Cliff

About this map

The Oak Cliff section of Dallas is shown in a period of significant mid-century expansion, where dense residential blocks give way to undeveloped hills and gravel operations in the south. The map documents an area defined by the Trinity River and its tributaries, including Fivemile Creek and Coombs Creek. Key institutional landmarks such as the Veterans Hospital and St Joseph Home for Girls anchor the community, alongside numerous neighborhood campuses like Adamson High Sch and Stockard Jr High Sch.
