About this map

Nellis Air Force Base dominates the northeastern landscape of this mid-century desert basin, establishing a massive footprint alongside the expanding residential grids of North Las Vegas and Las Vegas. The era's growth is evident in the dense concentration of educational institutions like St Christophers Sch, Martin Jr High Sch, and Knudson Jr High Sch, which populate the newly platted neighborhoods. This survey captures a moment when the city’s suburban reach was pushing east toward the Las Vegas Wash, yet still retained pockets of industrial and leisure activity, from the Stardust Country Club in the south to the Frenchman Mine in the rugged eastern foothills. The Union Pacific rail line and established thoroughfares like Vegas Valley Drive orient the valley’s development around these arterial connections.
