1953 Map of Honolulu
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
Diamond Head and the volcanic crater of Punchbowl define the dramatic topography of this mid-century survey. The urban core of Honolulu is shown in a period of significant growth, with neighborhoods expanding from the historic Honolulu Harbor into the valleys of Manoa Stream and Palolo Stream. The map details a landscape of transition where the Oahu Railway still skirts the coast near the industrial district of Iwilei, while the newer Nimitz Highway and Ala Moana Blvd handle increasing automobile traffic.
