Capture a glimpse of Huffman’s past with this framed black-and-white photograph taken in 1953 by I.T. May, Sr. The image depicts a peaceful scene of cows grazing in the waters of Lake Houston, with the iconic railroad bridge standing proudly in the background.
This photograph was taken just before Lake Houston was flooded in April 1954, making it a rare and poignant view of the landscape as it once was. That same railroad bridge, a familiar landmark, still stands today just south of McKay Bridge—linking our present to the community’s rich history.
This one-of-a-kind photograph is more than art; it is a historic keepsake that honors the people and places that shaped Huffman’s story. Perfect for collectors, history enthusiasts, or anyone who cherishes local heritage.
