1955 Map of Alpine

About this map

Alpine and the surrounding foothill communities are documented here during a period of transition as mid-century rural ranching met suburban expansion. The landscape is defined by its water management and topography, anchored by the Loveland Reservoir to the southeast and El Capitan Reservoir at the northern edge. Numerous family ranch holdings, such as Beynon Ranch, McClain Ranch, and Cornelius Ranch, appear alongside established residential developments like Suncrest and Alpine Heights.
