1951 Map of Agua Fria

About this map

The Caja Del Rio Grant and Cieneguilla Grant dominate the western landscape of this mid-century survey, reflecting the enduring Spanish land grant legacy in the Santa Fe region. The settlement of Agua Fria serves as the primary residential hub, featuring the San Isidro Cemetery and early suburban developments like the Drive-in Theater and Trailer Park. To the south, the Santa Fe Municipal Airport and the adjacent Santa Fe Municipal Golf Course within the Pacheco Grant mark the expansion of civic infrastructure during the post-war era. The terrain is defined by a series of significant drainage systems, including Alamo Creek, Arroyo de los Frijoles, and Arroyo de las Trampas, which cut through the high desert floor. Industrial activity is represented by a Gravel Pit and various utility corridors like the Buckman Road, several pipelines, and a telephone line.
