1952 Map of Point Comfort

About this map

Point Comfort emerges as an industrial and maritime hub along the eastern edge of Lavaca Bay in the early 1950s. This survey, compiled from late 1940s aerial photography, captures the critical infrastructure of the era, including a Water Tower, large Oil Tanks, and a dedicated Sewage Disposal system. The Point Comfort and Northern railroad provides the vital link between these coastal facilities and the interior, crossing the landscape toward the Jackson and Calhoun County line.
