1952 Map of Knights Landing

About this map

Sacramento River meanders define this Central Valley landscape, where complex water management infrastructure meets established agricultural settlements. The town of Knights Landing serves as a focal point, situated at a critical bend where the river meets the Knights Landing Ridge Cut. This engineering work, alongside the massive Sutter By-Pass to the east, illustrates the region's historic efforts to control seasonal flooding. Small communities like Robbins and Marchant dot the surrounding reclamation districts, supported by an intricate network of levees including the Sutter Levee and Yolo Levee.
