1952 Map of Fowler

About this map

Agricultural lands and industrial sites west of Phoenix are documented in this mid-century survey, with revisions from the late 1960s and early 1970s. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the Salt River and Gila River near the Gila and Salt River Base Line. A network of irrigation canals, including the Grand Canal and Roosevelt Canal, supports the surrounding fields while new residential tracts expand around Alhambra and Fowler. Institutional and industrial growth is evident through the presence of the Aluminum Plant and the County Juvenile Home. Local education is anchored by numerous neighborhood campuses such as Isaac Sch, Coe Sch, and Murphy Sch No 2. This era marks a period of significant urban transformation as the city footprint pushes into formerly rural spaces.
