Waco Map Art

Waco's street grid breaks sharply at the Brazos River, which cuts through downtown in a tight oxbow bend before widening into lakes. Interstate 35 runs parallel to the river on the east side, creating a clear division between the older downtown core and sprawling residential areas that fan south and west. The railroad corridor follows the Brazos as well, threading through the downtown district where the grid remains intact from the city's late-19th-century founding.
