USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
The Union Pacific railroad corridor serves as the spine for early growth in this 1952 study of Southern Nevada, where the core of Las Vegas and North Las Vegas is surrounded by a patchwork of small suburban clusters and ranch lands. To the north, Nellis Air Force Base and Skyhaven Airport signal the region's burgeoning aviation importance, while the sprawling Magnesium Plant in the southeast near Pittman anchors the industrial landscape.
