1951 Map of Fairfield North

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Vaca Mountains dominate this 1951 landscape, forming a dramatic physical barrier between the agricultural flats and the secluded valleys to the west. On the eastern side of the range, the urban footprints of Fairfield and Vacaville are shown in their mid-century configuration, intersected by the Southern Pacific railroad. The map highlights the area's transition from early pioneer history to industrial utility, evidenced by the Pena House (Historic Site) situated near the mouth of the canyon and the Cement Quarry at Cement Hill. In the western reaches, Gordon Valley and Mankas Corner remain focused on rural life, supported by small local institutions like the Gordon Valley Sch and Gomer School. This survey captures the region just before the significant suburban expansion of the later 20th century, retaining clear views of the original water courses like Ledgewood Creek and Suisun Creek.
