1954 Map of Alameda

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Rio Grande valley north of Albuquerque is defined by a complex irrigation network in the mid-1950s, where the Main Canal and Corrales Main Canal supported agricultural life. Ancient land divisions persist through the large tracts of the Sandia Pueblo Grant and the Elena Gallegos Grant, showing a landscape still transitioning from rural estates to suburban expansion. The historic El Camino Real runs parallel to the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, anchoring the settlements of Alameda and Corrales. Local education and community life are marked by the Sandia View Academy, Sandoval Sch, and the San Ysidro Ch. To the east, the terrain rises sharply into the Cibola National Forest, cut by deep drainages like Pino Canyon and Bear Canyon.
