1980ref. 3562N.p. probably Brownsville Tx 1980. Very good. Blue-line map 42 x 62 inches. Uneven toning minor overall wear. A large-format plat map of the Texas border town of Brownsville likely created in the early 1980s. The date is based on the appearance of the Sunrise Mall which opened its doors in 1979 and the name of the airport which was changed in 1983; as such the present map was printed sometime between those two dates. The present map shows the original city parcel as well as many other notable modern developments including the Airport Industrial Park the Fourteenth Street Commercial Plaza and the Amigoland Theme Park the latter of which was never built. The Rio Grande can be seen winding its way through the bottom portion of the map. We locate no other copies of this map anywhere. It was likely produced for local developers and as such is quite rare. An ideal decorative Texas map. unknown
