1960 Map of Voth

About this map

Pine Island Bayou and the Neches River define the intricate hydrological landscape north of Beaumont at the cusp of the 1960s. The map reveals a transition from industrial activity to suburban expansion, with the Ariola Field and scattered Oil Wells in the northwest contrasting against developing residential pockets like Woodcrest Acres and Rosedale Acres. The rail corridor, shared by the Southern Pacific and the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe, anchors the small communities of Voth and Loeb, where local landmarks like the Chance-Loeb Sch and Voth-Rosedale Sch speak to the area's mid-century educational infrastructure.
