An Aerial of Mayfield Park in the 1920s


This aerial view shows the north side of Sugar Land in the 1920s. You see The Hill to the left and Mayfield Park in the middle & right. It was known as the Quarters in those days.

I think that's M. R. Wood campus standing in the middle of the horse shoe created by Oyster Creek.

Imperial Boulevard is visible in the upper right-hand corner.

By the way, I think Bob Laperouse took this picture. A pilot took him up in an open-cockpit plane to take the picture - & several others. (Maybe a member of the Laperouse family can set me straight on this.)
