1955 Map of Oak Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Barton Creek and Williamson Creek carve through this mid-1950s landscape southwest of Austin, documenting a period of transition before suburban density fully arrived. The Missouri Pacific railroad corridor serves as a spine for early industrial and educational landmarks, including St Edwards University and the Extract Plant near the southern bend of Onion Creek. Evidence of local social life and community hubs is scattered throughout, from the Oak Hill Downs racetrack and the Austin Speedway to the Onion Creek Lodge No 220.
