1948 Map of King City

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Salinas River serves as the central artery for this late-1940s landscape, flanked by the sprawling Hunter Liggett Military Reservation and the industrial activity of the Southern Pacific railroad. The agricultural heart of the Salinas Valley is anchored by King City, where the King City Airport and local infrastructure like the Sewage Disposal plant reflect postwar development. To the south, the terrain transitions into a dense network of canyons, including Quinado Canyon and Espinosa Canyon, leading toward the storied San Antonio Mission and the Hunter Liggett Headquarters at the map's edge.
