1967 Map of Southton

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

San Antonio River meanders south from the city, passing a series of landmark colonial Spanish sites preserved as the San Jose Mission National Historic Site. The landscape in the late 1960s is a mix of urban expansion, military installations, and industrial extraction. Significant aviation footprints are visible at Brooks Air Force Base and Stinson Municipal Airport, while the southeastern corner is dominated by the Braunig Lake reservoir and its adjacent Powerplant. Moving toward the settlement of Southton, the terrain is marked by numerous Gravel Pits and the sprawling grounds of the Southton Sanatorium. The confluence of the river with the Medina River near Earle highlights the hydrologic network that supported early agricultural communities like Bergs Mill and Buena Vista, before modern infrastructure like Goliad Road reshaped the valley's transit.
