1956 Map of Pullman

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Amarillo Air Force Base dominates the northeastern landscape of this mid-century survey, reflecting the strategic importance of the Texas Panhandle during the Cold War. Adjacent to the base, the Amarillo Air Terminal and English Field serve as a hub for aviation, supported by specialized infrastructure like the Radio Range Station and a Control Tower. The map captures a high-plains landscape where military and civil aviation intersect with a robust rail network. Three major lines converge in the area: the Panhandle and Santa Fe, the Fort Worth and Denver (Burlington), and the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific. Small communities like Pullman and Folsom are tightly integrated into this transit corridor, punctuated by industrial landmarks such as Grain Elevators that signal the region's agricultural foundations. The presence of a Racetrack and Highland Park Sch indicates the residential and social growth expanding from nearby urban centers.
