About this map

The Colorado River defines the landscape of this Central Texas quadrangle, winding past Hardeman Bend and Kennedy Bluffs toward the town of Smithville. The local street grid is remarkably preserved, featuring both the Smithville Commercial Historic District and the Smithville Residential Historic District, showcasing the area's established architectural heritage. Transportation corridors like FM 153 Farm-To-Market Rd and the historic Gotier Trace Rd connect the town to the surrounding countryside, where small settlements like Alum Creek and family landmarks such as Powell Cemetery and Thompson Cemetery anchor the rural landscape.

Water management is prominent across the terrain, visible in several engineered reservoirs including Harmon Lake, A J Rod Lake, and Rod Lake Number 2. These features, along with Buescher State Park, provide a clear picture of how land and water have been utilized for both industry and recreation. To the east, the Smithville Municipal Airport marks a modern utility near the residential expansion along Hidden Pines Pkwy.
