1964 Map of Odessa NE

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The expansion of Odessa during the mid-1960s is clearly visible in this survey, showing a growing urban grid pushing northeast into the Permian Basin oil fields. The transition from industrial landscape to residential development is marked by the presence of Sunset Memorial Gardens (Cem) and several community institutions, including Permian High Sch and Chapel Hill Ch. An intricate network of pipelines and aqueducts crisscrosses the landscape, supporting the extensive drilling operations at Headlee Field, Ratliff Field, and Hallanan Field. Beyond the encroaching city limits, the land remains dominated by ranching and energy production, anchored by the Ratliff Ranch. The Missouri Pacific railroad serves as the primary transportation artery, running parallel to early shopping centers like the Sherwood Shopping Center. This edition includes revisions from the late 1970s, providing a layered view of the region's rapid development.
