1970 Map of Lake Havasu City North

About this map

Lake Havasu City emerges from the desert floor in this early 1970s record of rapid development along the eastern shore of Lake Havasu. The map captures the planned residential grid of the burgeoning city, showcasing a network of thoroughfares like Havasupai Blvd, Kiowa Blvd, and Palo Verde Blvd as they extend toward the mountains. To the north, the terrain transitions into the steep slopes of the Mohave Mountains, where the Wing Mine stands as a reminder of the area's older mineral prospecting history.
