About this map

Industrial maritime infrastructure and expansive coastal wetlands define this 1943 survey of the Texas-Louisiana border. Port Arthur stands as the primary hub, its street grid and rail lines from the Southern Pacific and Kansas City Southern converging on the deep-water Turning Basin. This map captures the critical junction of the Neches River and the Port Arthur Canal, highlighting a sophisticated network of waterways including the Intracoastal Waterway that facilitated mid-century Gulf Coast shipping.
