1955 Map of Port Isabel NW

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Padre Island dominates this 1955 survey, showing the narrow coastal barrier as it appeared prior to extensive modern development. The landscape is defined by Shifting Sand Dunes and vast stretches of Sand and Mud between the Gulf of Mexico and the Laguna Madre. While largely unpopulated, the southern portion of the island features Andy Bowie Park, reflecting early mid-century efforts to establish recreational spaces along the Texas coast.
