Houston Ship Channel

Details

IdentifierMaps_492aDate1915DescriptionThe four issues of this map (Maps_492a, Maps_492.2a, Maps_492.3a, and Maps_492.4a), showing the area from Morgan's Point to Houston, provide an excellent summary of the changes that occurred in and around the Houston ship channel from 1915 to 1932. The growth during this period is tremendous. The turning basin has been enlarged, Houston has expanded rapidly southwestward, and new towns, roads, railroad facilities, and oil refineries have developed.
