About this map

Salt production and maritime trade dominate the East Bay shoreline in the late nineteenth century, where industrial facilities like the Union City Salt Works and Crystal Salt Works occupy the marshy tidal flats. The landscape is defined by the transition from the hills of the Coyote Hills and the drainage of Alameda Creek to the extensive salt marshes of San Francisco Bay. A network of landings, including Roberts Landing, Johnson Landing, and Patterson Landing, serves as the primary interface between the agricultural interior and San Francisco's markets, predating the complete dominance of the rail system.
