USGS Topo · Published 1988About this map
Industrial expansion along the Texas coast defines this 1952 study, later updated to show the massive footprint of refining and processing facilities at Point Comfort. The landscape is a complex intersection of land and water, where the Lavaca River empties into Lavaca Bay and Swan Lake. Large-scale infrastructure dominates the eastern shore, including a sprawling Oil Field and an extensive Spoil Bank, linked to the interior by the Point Comfort and Northern railroad.
