About this map

The San Lorenzo River valley defines this mid-century landscape, carving a corridor through the redwood-covered terrain of the Santa Cruz Mountains. The Southern Pacific railroad follows the river's bend, linking a series of mountain communities including Boulder Creek, Brookdale, Ben Lomond, and Felton. This era shows a mix of established resort-style settlements and institutional growth, evidenced by the Blake-Hammond Manor School and the San Lorenzo Valley High School.
