1952 Map of Guadalupe

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The agricultural and industrial landscape south of Tempe comes into focus during this mid-century transition, centered on the historic community of Guadalupe. The map documents a critical period of desert irrigation and utility expansion, anchored by the Kyrene Steam Generating Plant and a network of water management features like the Western Canal and Highline Canal. These waterways define the grid of the valley floor, supporting specialized rural sites such as the Kyrene Gin and various loading pens situated along the Southern Pacific railroad line.
