1954 Map of Corcoran
USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
Agricultural development and industrial processing define the landscape around Corcoran during the mid-1950s. The town serves as a central hub for the Tulare Lake Basin, evidenced by the numerous Grain Elevators and the prominent route of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad. The map reveals a specialized labor geography through named worker settlements like Crockett and Gambogy Labor Camp, Salyer Farms Camp One, and Boswell Camp One, illustrating the large-scale ranching operations that replaced the waters of the former lake bed.
