About this map

Tyler's mid-century expansion is clearly documented here, showing the city's growth southward toward the Troup Highway during a period of significant urban development. The presence of Texas College, Butler College, and Tyler Jr College underscores the city's role as a regional educational hub, while the famed Tyler Rose Park and Caldwell Zoo highlight its cultural infrastructure. The landscape is defined by its social history, with several legacy burial grounds such as Oakwood Cem and West View Cem situated near the city center, and the Ahavath Achim Cem located further west. Beyond the urban grid, the terrain is carved by Indian Creek and Willow Creek, leading toward the substantial waters of Bellwood Lake. The map captures the industrial and transportation backbone of the era, from the hospital district featuring Mother Frances Hospital to the rail corridors of the Southwestern RR and Missouri Pacific.
