About this map

The East Texas Oil Field defines the industrial landscape of Gregg County in this early 21st-century record, where residential expansion increasingly intersects with historical petroleum infrastructure. Energy production is central to the area's development, evidenced by the Warren Refinery, the Arkansas Gasoline Plant, and worker-centric settlements like Amerada Camp and Atlantic Camp. These sites reflect the region's long-standing reliance on the oil industry, which shaped the growth of communities such as White Oak and the western edge of Longview.

Beyond the industrial zones, the map traces older rural roots through landmarks like East Mountain Cemetery and Hunter Cemetery. Residential clusters such as Teneryville, Spring Hill, and Seven Pines are linked by a dense network of local roads including Old US Hwy 80. Hydrological features like Glade Creek and Lake Harris provide a natural contrast to the structured neighborhoods, while the prominent landform of East Mountain overlooks the northern reaches of the quadrangle.
