1954 Map of Virginia Point

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The critical junction at Virginia Point anchors this mid-century view of the Galveston Bay shoreline, where the mainland narrows into the Causeway approach. As industrial and residential growth accelerated between La Marque and Texas City, the landscape remained defined by complex rail and water infrastructure. The survey details the convergence of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and the Galveston Houston and Henderson railroads as they funnel toward Galveston Island.
