USGS Topo · Published 1945About this map
Waco serves as the focal point of this late 19th-century survey, situated at the confluence of the Brazos River and its western tributaries. Before the modern expansion of Central Texas, the landscape was defined by small agricultural hubs like Whitney, Peoria, and the riverfront settlement of Towash. The mapping reveals a distinct transition in topography where the winding canyons of the North Bosque River and South Bosque River meet the broader Brazos valley.
