1955 Map of Chittenden

About this map

Old Gilroy and the southern reaches of the Santa Clara Valley define this mid-century landscape where the Southern Pacific railroad tracks follow the natural corridors of the Pajaro River and the San Benito River. The geography is dictated by the convergence of the Santa Cruz Mountains and the Sargent Hills, creating vital transit points like Pajaro Gap and Chittenden Pass. These narrow gateways served as the primary conduits for rail and road traffic moving toward the coast.
