1995 Map of Port Lavaca East

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

Indian Point serves as a focal point for this coastal survey, where the waters of Lavaca Bay and Matagorda Bay meet. The landscape reflects a deeply historical shoreline, notably marked by the Historical Monument and Indianola Cem near the tip of Indianola Island, preserving the memory of a significant early Texas port. The inland area transitions from the residential grids of Alamo Beach and Magnolia Beach to a network of levees and coastal wetlands around Old Town Lake and Mud Lake. Industrial and maritime activity is evident in the Port Lavaca harbor facilities, including the Lynn Bayou Turning Basin and the Harbor of Refuge. This map details the intersection of the region's shipping economy, through the Matagorda Ship Channel, and its historical preservation along the shifting Gulf Coast sands.
