About this map

Goshen serves as the central hub of this 1920s agricultural landscape, where the Southern Pacific railroad lines converge at a vital junction for the Central Valley's shipping economy. The map reveals an intricate network of irrigation, including the Mill Creek Ditch, Persian Ditch, and Walson Ditch, which redirected water to sustain the surrounding farmlands. This systematic plumbing of the valley floor transformed the natural drainage of Mill Creek and Packwood Creek into a controlled grid of production.
