1953 Map of Honker Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Suisun Bay and Honker Bay dominate this landscape where the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers meet the tidal marshlands of Solano and Contra Costa counties. The northern shore is a complex network of reclaimed marshlands including Grizzly Island, Simmons Island, and Wheeler Island, divided by natural channels like Montezuma Slough and Roaring River. South of the water, the industrial and residential development of the mid-20th century is evident in the growing corridors of Pittsburg and West Pittsburg. Transportation infrastructure defines the southern shore, with the Southern Pacific and Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroads paralleling the waterfront. Notable landmarks include the Naval Naval Weapons Station Concord at the base of Monte Del Diablo, along with several local education centers such as Ambrose Sch and Belair School.
