1951 Map of Potrero Lopeno NW

About this map

Potrero Lopeno and the barrier islands of the Texas coastline define this mid-century maritime landscape. This survey captures the transition of the region as the Padre Island National Seashore was established, documenting the complex system of shifting sand dunes and expansive deposits of sand and mud that characterize the barrier environment. The Intracoastal Waterway cuts a distinct path through the Laguna Madre, flanked by a series of spoil banks that mark the human engineering required to maintain this vital shipping route.
