1957 Map of Sabine Pass

About this map

Sabine Pass serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, where the deep-water channel meets the Gulf of Mexico. The landscape is defined by the marshy transition between Wildcat Ridge and the open water, marked by a network of coastal lakes including Keith Lake, Johnson Lake, and Mud Lake. Maritime history is prominent here, evidenced by the U S Coast Guard Station, the Pilot Sta, and the Lighthouse (Abandoned) situated within the Sabine Pass Lighthouse Reservation. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies the Pace Cem and McGaffey Cem near the settled area. Industrial and military footprints are visible through the Old Railroad Grade and the East Boundary Old Military Reservation, reflecting the strategic importance of this border waterway between Louisiana and Texas.
