About this map

Industrial energy and coastal geography intersect in this mid-century survey of Port Arthur and its neighboring refinery towns. The landscape is defined by the heavy infrastructure of the era, including multiple Oil Refinery sites, extensive Tank Farm layouts, and a dense network of rail lines like the Kansas City Southern and Southern Pacific. The urban development of Groves, Nederland, and Port Neches is clearly visible, showing a corridor of residential growth and schools such as Wheatly Sch and Carver Sch situated near the industrial waterfront.
