1928 Map of Delta Farms No 3

USGS Topo · Published 1928

About this map

Agricultural development and early automotive era road planning define this 1928 survey of the San Joaquin Valley. The landscape is dominated by a rigid grid of planned thoroughfares, many named after early car manufacturers such as Cadillac Avenue and Packard Avenue, reflecting the era's fascination with the emerging motor age. Much of the northern territory is occupied by the Kern Co Delta Farms No 3, an expansive tract of managed land that illustrates the large-scale reclamation and farming efforts prevalent in Fresno County during the late 1920s.
