About this map

The waters of Galveston Bay dominate this mid-century survey, revealing the critical maritime infrastructure connecting the Texas coast. The settlement of Port Bolivar sits at the tip of the Bolivar Peninsula, serving as a vital juncture for the Intracoastal Waterway and the Houston Ship Channel. This 1954 field-checked data, with later 1970s photogrammetric revisions, highlights the constant shifting of the coastal landscape, from the extensive Hanna Reef to the tidal flats near Hanna.
