Overlay of Proposed Yard Changes, 1940s

I put together this quick-and-dirty overlay of the proposed changes to the easternmost yard in Georgetown from the late 1940s compared to the current satellite photo. As you can see, it’s quite a striking difference. Probably the only thing still in place are the bulkheads along the waterways and the Whitehurst Freeway. Fascinating.
