1984 Map of Tyler

About this map

Tyler and Longview serve as the primary hubs for this 1980s-era map of East Texas, a region defined by its dense network of reservoirs and deep-rooted timber and oil heritage. The Sabine River snakes through the center of the sheet, feeding into the expansive Toledo Bend Reservoir to the southeast. This period shows the mature landscape of the East Texas Oil Field, where towns like Kilgore and Gladewater sit at the heart of a complex industrial and transport grid.
