1959 Map of Arcata South

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Humboldt State University anchors the northern edge of this coastal landscape, where the urban development of Arcata meets the marshy expanse of the Arcata Bottoms. The shoreline of Humboldt Bay is a complex network of sloughs, including Liscom Slough and Fay Slough, supporting an economy shaped by the Northwestern Pacific railroad and the Pacific Highway. The 1972 photorevisions highlight the expanding residential footprints in Sunny Brae and the development of suburban fringes near Bayside.
