1953 Map of Birds Landing

About this map

The Montezuma Hills rise above the flat marshlands of the Delta in this mid-century survey, showcasing a landscape defined by expansive ranching and vital water infrastructure. Numerous family-owned landholdings, such as Peterson Ranch, Hansen Ranch, Lambie Ranch, and Thompson Ranch, are scattered across the undulating terrain, punctuated by essential Windmill sites and water storage Reservoirs. To the west, the Sacramento Northern railroad cuts through the lowlands, serving as a lifeline for the agricultural community of Creed and the small settlement at Rio Vista Junction.
