1967 Map of Las Vegas NE

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Nellis Air Force Base dominates the northern landscape of this survey, bordered by the Lake Mead Base Bdy and extensive areas of desert terrain. To the southwest, the rapid suburban expansion of North Las Vegas and Las Vegas is evident through a dense grid of schools and public facilities, such as Rancho High Sch and the County Juvenile Court. The Union Pacific railroad tracks cut a sharp diagonal through the industrial western corridor, while natural drainage features like the Las Vegas Wash and Flamingo Wash thread toward the base of Frenchman Mtn. This era captures a transition from open desert to a residential metropolis, marked by landmarks like the Stardust Country Club and the early Drive-in Theater that served the growing population near Cheyenne Ave.
