This is the second subdivision that has the name of “Burton”. It was proposed in 1940 and was to contain 10 blocks. On the original plat, the streets running west and east have names that most likely were proposed by the developer. Terrace Avenue is now Buena Vista Drive. The area in the southern part is covered airport parking. The rest of the area is now part of the Newport Industrial Park West Unit 2. The northern boundary (shown as Marsden Avenue in the plat) roughly corresponds to present day Miles Road.

The Digital Sanborn Maps collection is a browsable set of thousands of digitized images of the 1867–1970 Sanborn maps for cities and towns in New Mexico.
The maps contain information such as the outline of each building, the size, shape and construction materials, heights, and function of structures, location of windows and doors. The maps also give street names, street and sidewalk widths, property boundaries, building use, and house and block numbers.
