1950 Map of Beverly Hills
USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
The Santa Monica Mountains drop sharply into the burgeoning postwar sprawl of West Los Angeles, revealing a landscape defined by rapid suburbanization and the global influence of the entertainment industry. Massive studio lots, including Twentieth Century Fox Studios, MGM Studios, and Selznick Studios, occupy significant acreage alongside the prestigious University of California at Los Angeles campus. The built environment is characterized by an extensive grid of boulevards like Wilshire Blvd and Sunset Blvd, while the Pacific Electric railway still carves its path through the region.
