About this map

The high desert landscape of Antelope Valley transitions into the steep canyons of the Angeles National Forest in this 1937 survey. The settlement of Fairmont serves as a focal point at the base of Fairmont Butte, situated along a network of section-line roads like Neenach Road and Avenue D. This era captures critical infrastructure development in Southern California, most notably the winding path of the Los Angeles Aqueduct as it feeds into the Fairmont Reservoir. The map illustrates a rigid grid system imposed upon the alluvial plains, with numbered thoroughfares such as 190th Street West and 170th Street West defining the rural blocks. To the south, the terrain breaks into deeply incised drainages including Kings Canyon, Price Canyon, and Myrick Canyon, showing the geographic divide between the open valley floor and the mountainous forest boundary.
