1957 Map of Hedgpeth Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Thunderbird Recreation Area and the surrounding Hedgpeth Hills dominate this mid-century look at the northern edge of the Salt River Valley. While northern sections like Biscuit Flat and Weir Valley remain largely undeveloped desert terrain, the southern portions of the sheet document the post-war expansion of Peoria, Glendale, and Phoenix. This era shows a landscape in transition, where traditional irrigation infrastructure like the Canal and numerous reservoirs meet the emerging suburban grid defined by Bell Road and Union Hills Drive.
