1954 Map of San Antonio

About this map

The Balcones Escarpment serves as a dramatic geological divide on this mid-century survey, separating the high Edwards Plateau from the fertile plains of South Texas. At the center of this landscape, San Antonio appears as a burgeoning hub of military and aviation infrastructure. The city is surrounded by a formidable ring of installations, including Fort Sam Houston (Army), Kelly AFB, Lackland AFB, and Brooks AFB. To the northeast, Randolph AFB and the Camp Bullis Military Reservation further underscore the area's strategic importance during the Cold War era.
