1955 Map of Pearland
USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
Pearland stands as the primary hub of this Texas coastal plain landscape during the mid-1950s, a period marked by burgeoning petroleum production and early suburban growth. The map illustrates a region in transition, where established rural sites like Clear Creek Farm and Minnetex exist alongside the developing Skyscraper Shadows subdivision. Industrial activity is concentrated at the Mykawa Oil Field and the Manvel Field, while the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe railroad tracks cut a diagonal path through the terrain, connecting Pearland to the shipping siding at Hastings.
