USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
The industrial and riverine character of the Texas-Louisiana border is defined by the Sabine River as it winds toward the Gulf of Mexico. This mid-1950s survey captures the city of Orange at a peak of maritime activity, showing the intricate system of canals and bayous like Little Cypress Bayou and Blue Elbow. The landscape is a complex transition of coastal prairies and wetlands, where the Intracoastal Waterway cuts a straight path across the southern marshes.
