1967 Map of Fontana

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Industrial expansion and postwar suburban growth define this portrait of the Inland Empire, centered on the massive Steel Plant in western Fontana. The grid of the city is punctuated by numerous educational and civic institutions, from Fontana High Sch to the Kaiser Hospital, reflecting the rapid development of the mid-20th century. To the south, the Jurupa Mountains rise sharply, separating the industrial core from the Santa Ana River valley and settlements like Glen Avon and Rubidoux. A complex transportation network of the Southern Pacific and Union Pacific railroads, alongside the San Bernardino Freeway, highlights the area's role as a vital logistics corridor. Smaller communities such as Bloomington and the quarry-dominated Declezville appear alongside family-named landmarks like Grimes Sch and Zimmerman Sch.
