1900 Map of Fernando

About this map

The San Fernando Mission stands as a focal point of this late 19th-century survey, surrounded by the vast Ex Mission San Fernando lands as the region transitioned toward citrus farming and suburban growth. The settlement of Fernando is clearly defined at the junction of the Southern Pacific RR and its New Orleans Line, illustrating the early rail infrastructure that connected the valley to greater Los Angeles. Further east, Sunland and Pacoima appear as emerging outposts at the edge of the Tujunga Valley.
