1954 Map of Rockport

About this map

Live Oak Peninsula anchors this mid-century study of the Aransas County coast, where the urban center of Rockport and the nearby community of Fulton front the shallow waters of Aransas Bay. The landscape is defined by the intersection of water and industry, notably the Fulton Beach Oil Field and Copano Bay Oil Field, which illustrate the post-war energy boom along the Texas Gulf Coast. Navigation and aviation are central to this 1950s environment, evidenced by the Aransas County Airport and the Intracoastal Waterway skirting the eastern reefs.
