About this map

The San Gabriel Valley landscape of the early 1920s is defined by a dense network of citrus groves and expanding rail lines. El Monte serves as a central hub, where the Pacific Electric Railway and Southern Pacific Railroad converge near the Rio Hondo. This era shows the transition from large ranchos to smaller township developments, with the land still divided by historic land grants like Potrero Grande and Paso de Bartolo.
