1964 Map of Odessa SE

About this map

The Texas and Pacific railroad bisects the landscape of Ector County, serving as the industrial spine for the developing city of Odessa. In the mid-1960s, the urban grid pushes southeast with numerous educational institutions including Gonzales Sch, Bonham Jr H S, and Reagan Sch. The city's growth is clearly tied to the surrounding energy landscape, with the map documenting the intensive infrastructure of the Headlee Oil Field, Dora Roberts Oil Field, and South Cowden Oil Field. Beyond the red-tinted residential blocks, the terrain is defined by extractive and agricultural landmarks such as a large Refinery, a Chemical Plant, and isolated water sources like the Hendricks Windmills and Dumbground Windmill. The presence of the Walters Ranch and various named windmills reflects the persistence of cattle ranching alongside the booming oil and rail economy of West Texas.
