This map details paved roads, partially improved roads, railroads and electric interurban lines in Dallas and Tarrant Counties as of 1915. The map's compiler was consulting and construction engineer Fred A. Jones (1875-1928). He and his company were among the leading contractors in the Southwestern U.S. between 1906 and 1930. He played a major role in the development of the interurban railroad and water systems of North Texas, and he supervised the construction of such buildings as the original Dallas Country Club, Dallas Hall at SMU, the Dallas Municipal Building, the Southland Building, White Rock Lake and Wastewater Purification Plant, and the Texas Farm and Ranch Building. Bert Firmin was a draftsman who worked for Jones and for the Missouri, Kansas and Texas (Katy) Railroad.
