1962 Map of Albuquerque
USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
Albuquerque serves as the central hub of this 1962 New Mexico survey, which captures a landscape defined by significant tribal lands and post-war industrial expansion. The city is flanked by the Sandia Mountains and the Rio Grande, while the surrounding plateau is heavily divided into sovereign territories including the Laguna Indian Reservation and Acoma Indian Reservation. To the west near Grants, the map documents a burgeoning uranium and mineral economy, highlighted by massive operations like the Jackpile Mine and the Anaconda Section Nine strip mine.
