1967 Map of Las Vegas NW

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Las Vegas and North Las Vegas expand rapidly across the desert floor in this detailed look at the valley during a period of massive mid-century growth. The map illustrates the shifting urban boundary as residential developments, indicated by purple and red tints, push toward Lone Mtn and the numerous gravel pits at the city’s edge. Infrastructure like the Union Pacific rail line and North Las Vegas Air Terminal anchor the industrial and transport sectors, while the nascent Strip area begins to take shape near the Convention Center. Community life is centered around a dense network of local institutions, from the County Courthouse and Southern Memorial Hospital to dozens of neighborhood schools like Bishop Gorman Sch and Western High Sch. Pockets of recreation including the Municipal Golf Course and Lorenzi Park provide green space amidst the grid of evolving desert thoroughfares.
