1953 Map of Brush Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The confluence of the Tuolumne River and the San Joaquin River dominates this mid-century portrait of the Central Valley. The landscape is a detailed grid of agricultural development, defined by an intricate network of lateral canals and irrigation drains such as the Westport Drain. This era shows the expansion of Modesto southwest of its city boundary, where residential blocks and schools like Burbank Sch and James Marshall Sch begin to replace the open fields of the historical Rancho Del Puerto land grant.
