East Texas outcrops consist of Cretaceous and Paleogene sediments which contain important deposits of Eocene lignite the Mississippian and Pennsylvanian sediments in the north; Permian sediments in the west; and Cretaceous sediments in the east along the Gulf coast and out on the Texas continental shelf contain oil Oligocene volcanic rocks are found in far west Texas in the Big Bend area a blanket of Miocene sediments known as the Ogallala formation in the western high plains region is an important aquifer. Located far from an active plate tectonic boundary Texas has no volcanoes and few earthquakes! 1 Background The largest proposed development was Houston Center originally planned to encompass a 32-block area However by 1989 when the company that acquired the original developer sold Houston Center the complex consisted of three office buildings a shopping center and a hotel. Other large projects included the Cullen Center Allen Center and towers for Shell Oil Company the surge of skyscrapers mirrored the skyscraper booms in other sunbelt cities such as Los Angeles and Dallas Houston had experienced another downtown construction spurt in the 1970s with the energy industry boom. 7.2 Pop Several school districts serve Harris County communities Among the 26 districts are:, See also: List of Houston neighborhoods John Henninger Reagan practiced law in Palestine and Henderson County. Main article: Culture of Houston Geologists and other Earth scientists agree in general that the present Gulf of Mexico basin originated in Late Triassic time as the result of rifting within Pangea the rifting was associated with zones of weakness within Pangea including sutures where the Laurentia South American and African plates collided to create it First there was a Late Triassic-Early Jurassic phase of rifting during which rift valleys formed and filled with continental red beds Second as rifting progressed through Early and Middle Jurassic time continental crust was stretched and thinned This thinning created a broad zone of transitional crust which displays modest and uneven thinning with block faulting and a broad zone of uniformly thinned transitional crust which is half the typical 40 kilometer thickness of normal continental crust it was at this time that rifting first created a connection to the Pacific Ocean across central Mexico and later eastward to the Atlantic Ocean This flooded the opening basin to create the Gulf of Mexico as an enclosed marginal sea While the Gulf of Mexico was a restricted basin the subsiding transitional crust was blanketed by the widespread deposition of Louann Salt and associated anhydrite evaporites During the Late Jurassic continued rifting widened the Gulf of Mexico and progressed to the point that sea-floor spreading and formation of oceanic crust occurred at this point sufficient circulation with the Atlantic Ocean was established that the deposition of Louann Salt ceased. Seafloor spreading stopped at the end of Jurassic time about 145-150 million years ago; Because the Houston Independent School District was slow to desegregate public schools on June 1 1970 the Federal officials struck the HISD plan down and forced it to adopt zoning laws This was 16 years after the landmark Supreme Court ruling in Brown v Board of Education which determined that segregated schools were inherently unequal Racial tensions over integration of the schools continued Some Hispanic Americans felt they were being discriminated against when they were being put with only African-Americans as part of the desegregation plan so many took their children out of the schools and put them in huelgas or protest schools until a ruling in 1973 satisfied their demands, The 18-story Prudential Building designed by Kenneth Franzheim was constructed in 1952 in the Texas Medical Center the ground level walls of the Prudential Building were clad with deep red polished Texas granite; the upper floors on the northwest and northeast sides were clad in Texas limestone the southwest and southeast sides though were faced with full-height aluminum arrangements to "utilize solar rays and air circulation to effect economies in air conditioning." the building was the first local corporate high rise office building in Houston to be located outside of the central business district the Prudential Building was demolished January 8 2012. (36) 103 The tallest structure in Uptown Houston is the 901-foot (275 m) tall Philip Johnson-designed landmark Williams Tower (formerly "Transco Tower") which was constructed in 1983. At the time it was to be the world's tallest skyscraper outside of a city's central business district the building is topped with a rotating spot light that constantly searches the horizon. Williams Tower was named "Skyscraper of the Century" in the December 1999 issue of Texas Monthly magazine.

. Migration Main article: Texas Medical Center World War II had a dramatic impact on Texas as federal money poured in to build military bases munitions factories POW detention camps and Army hospitals; 750,000 young men left for service; the cities exploded with new industry; the colleges took on new roles; and hundreds of thousands of poor farmers left the fields for much better paying war jobs never to return to agriculture. Texas manufactured 3.1 percent of total United States military armaments produced during World War II ranking eleventh among the 48 states.
