1955 Map of Chittenden

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Gavilan Junior College and the surrounding agricultural valleys are the focal point of this mid-century landscape where the Santa Cruz Mountains meet the San Ysidro Valley. The Southern Pacific railroad corridor dictates the placement of transit-dependent settlements like Corporal, Sargent, and Chittenden. Significant geological and hydrologic features are mapped in detail, including the San Andreas Rift Zone and the confluence of the Pajaro River and San Benito River. The map highlights the transition from the rolling terrain of the Lomerias Muertas to the flat expanse of the Llano De Tequisquita. Small industrial footprints such as Quarry Lake and a Gravel Pit appear alongside natural water bodies like Soda Lake and Anzar Lake, illustrating the intersection of natural resources and early development in this Central Coast region.
