1964 Map of Odessa SW

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Odessa urban landscape transitions abruptly into the industrial energy corridors of the Permian Basin in this mid-1960s survey. Dense residential blocks and educational hubs like Odessa College and Bowie Sch occupy the northeastern corner, but the surrounding terrain is defined by the massive Foster Oil Field and South Cowden Oil Field. A sprawling network of pipelines, pumping stations, and gravel pits services the region's extraction economy, while the Carbon Black Plant and a nearby Refinery anchor the industrial operations near Sid Richardson. One of the most distinctive landmarks on the sheet is the Odessa Meteor Crater, situated south of the Texas and Pacific railroad line. Topographically, the area is marked by the meandering path of Monahans Draw and an aqueduct that cuts through the arid landscape, supporting the growth of settlements like Arcade and Moss Ranch.
