1955 Map of Ysleta NW

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Rio Grande serves as the focal point of this borderland survey, marking the international boundary between the United States and Mexico along the outskirts of El Paso. This area represents a complex zone of urban expansion and water management, evidenced by the inclusion of the Chamizal and Convention Bdy labels, reflecting historical land and boundary adjustments. To the east, the residential developments of Lakeside and Alfalfa appear adjacent to the Texas and New Orleans railroad line, while the Playa Intercepting Drain and Playa Drain demonstrate the region's engineered irrigation and drainage network. Recreational spaces like Ascarate Park, containing Ascarate Lake and a Golf Course, offer a contrast to the industrial and logistical infrastructure of the Toll Bridges that connect the neighboring nations across the river.
