About this map

Industrial infrastructure and coastal waterways dominate the landscape of Port Arthur and West Port Arthur in the late 1950s. The northern quadrant is anchored by a massive Oil Refinery and specialized shipping facilities like the Turning Basin, West Basin, and East Basin. This period shows a community structured by industry and transit, with the Southern Pacific and Kansas City Southern railroads serving the waterfront. Educational life is represented by Lincoln High Sch, Carver Sch, and Lamar Sch.
