About this map

Texas City and La Marque stand as industrial and residential anchors along the western shore of Galveston Bay in the mid-1950s. This survey captures a landscape defined by the convergence of heavy industry and coastal geography, marked by extensive rail systems like the Texas City Terminal and the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe. The map details the vital connection to the mainland via the Galveston Causeway, linking to the northern tip of Galveston Island at Virginia Point.
