1967 Map of La Jolla

About this map

The coast of San Diego underwent significant post-war expansion by the late 1960s, visible here in the dense residential growth of Clairemont and North Clairemont east of the newly established Interstate Freeway 5. This era captures a fully developed Mission Bay, transformed into a recreational hub featuring Fiesta Island, Sea World Aquatic Park, and the International Arena. The map provides a detailed view of the regional educational and military footprint, from the coastal Scripps Institution of Oceanography and University of California San Diego to the inland Naval Air Station Miramar.
