1957 Map of San Angelo South

About this map

San Angelo spreads across the confluence of the North Concho River and South Concho River during a period of significant mid-century expansion. This 1957 record shows the city's transition from its frontier origins near Fort Concho Sch to a modern regional hub, anchored by the sprawling Goodfellow Air Force Base on the eastern edge. Educational and civic infrastructure is dense, with facilities ranging from San Angelo College to numerous neighborhood campuses like Stephen F Austin Sch and Lamar Sch. The landscape is defined by its water management, featuring the San Angelo Reservoir and Lake Nasworthy at the southern boundary, where the State Fish Hatchery No 2 sits near the riverbanks. To the southeast, the open terrain of Lipan Flat contrasts with the structured grid of the city's residential wards and industrial zones along the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe railroad tracks.
