About this map

Vallejo and Benicia anchor this 1959 coastal survey, which highlights the heavy industrial and maritime character of the Carquinez Strait during a period of significant postwar development. The map details an intricate rail network, with the Southern Pacific and Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe lines connecting shoreline industrial hubs like Oleum, Selby, and Ozol. Notable educational and civic landmarks include the California Maritime Academy and the Benicia Capitol State Historical Mon, marking the city's brief tenure as California's seat of government.
