Map of San Leon Home Tracts, Galveston County, Texas

Details

IdentifierMaps_484aDate1912DescriptionThis is the same site that the North Galveston Association promoted just a few years earlier (see no. 439). San Leon varies little from the proposed North Galveston - the agricultural outlots vary slightly (there are 104 instead of 102 on the North Galveston plan), as does the exact positioning of a few streets and the location of proposed and constructed railroads. The developers still touted the site as perfect for citrus farming. Lots already planted in Satsuma oranges appear in orange; those planted in "truck and field crops" are in green. | Language NoteEnglishSubjectSan Leon (Tex)--MapsCopyright StatementNo Copyright – Non-Commercial Use OnlySize37x40 centimeter map on 52x78 centimeter sheet, surrounded by fifteen photographs and promotional text.CartographerSan Leon Company
