About this map

The Rio Grande corridor southeast of El Paso is defined here by a dense network of irrigation and drainage infrastructure essential to the borderlands economy. This 1939 survey, published at the close of the war, reveals the intricate water management system including the Franklin Canal, Mesa Drain, and Ysleta Lateral that supported agriculture in the valley. The map documents significant cultural landmarks of the region, such as the San Antonio Mission and the Ysleta Jesuit College, alongside the international boundary with Juarez, Mexico.
