1946 Map of Academy

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The community of Academy and its surrounding foothills in Fresno County are captured here during the mid-1940s, a period when the landscape was defined by cattle ranching and stone extraction. The presence of the Academy Granite Quarry near the southern edge of the sheet points to the area's geological importance, specifically the production of black granite that was used extensively throughout the state. Large family holdings like the Blasingame Ranch and Shide Ranch dominate the central terrain, illustrating the rural character of this region before modern subdivision.
