1955 Map of El Cajon
USGS Topo · Published 1959About this map
El Cajon and its surrounding valleys are captured here in the mid-1950s, a period of transition where the agricultural roots of the region meet post-war suburban and industrial growth. The landscape is dotted with specialized institutions and landmarks like Edgemoor County Farm, Maniscalcos Cactus Farm, and the prominent Gillespie Field with its accompanying Airway Beacon. Local transit and trade are anchored by the San Diego and Arizona Eastern railroad, which threads through the city center past Cuyamaca Sch and the El Cajon Cem.
