USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
Placedo stands as the central hub of this coastal prairie landscape, where the Missouri Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads intersect. This 1952 topography, updated with revisions from the 1970s, reveals an economy deeply tied to the extraction industry at Placedo Field. The map records a complex network of infrastructure, including a prominent Radio Tower, numerous Oil Tanks, and a Sludge Pit near Carr, illustrating the mid-century industrial footprint on the Victoria County plains.
