About this map

The Tulare Lake Bed dominates this mid-century landscape in Kings County, revealing a massive reclamation effort through an intricate grid of infrastructure. By the early 1950s, the terrain was meticulously organized by a network of engineered waterways, including the Homeland Canal, East Canal, and the Liberty Farms South Canal. These water systems supported agricultural operations like South Lake Farms and the El Rico Ranch, while the dry lake topography is still evidenced by the presence of Pelican Island.
