1981 Map of Friendly Corners

About this map

Friendly Corners serves as the primary landmark in this arid Pinal County landscape, where the agricultural geometry of the late twentieth century is defined by an extensive network of irrigation and water management. The Santa Cruz River and the Greene Canal are central to the region's development, feeding into the Greene Reservoir and supporting various local catchments such as Big Tank, Coffee Tank, and Morris Tank. A rigid grid of named thoroughfares like Toltec Road, Eleven Mile Corner Road, and Sunshine Boulevard organizes the territory, while the southern margin of the sheet captures the boundary between Pinal and Pima Counties. Scattered substations and a persistent pipeline trace the modern utility infrastructure that sustain this desert environment, punctuated by isolated drill holes at the edge of more varied terrain.
