1985 Map of Tyler
USGS Topo · Published 1985About this map
Tyler serves as the regional hub of East Texas in this mid-1980s landscape, where the expanding city is surrounded by a network of smaller communities including Athens, Jacksonville, and Whitehouse. The central feature of the region is the massive Lake Palestine, formed by the damming of the Neches River, which creates a complex shoreline dotted with settlements like Frankston and Chandler. This era captures the transition of the local economy, shown through the presence of a Gas Plant and Refinery alongside established institutions like Tyler Junior College.
