1956 Map of Levis

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Agricultural development and industrial water management dominate this Fresno County landscape, which transitioned through the mid-20th century. The settlement of Three Rocks and the rail-aligned Levis serve as primary anchors in an area defined by a vast grid of irrigation infrastructure. The most significant modern intervention is the California Aqueduct, specifically the section designated as the Governor Edmund G Brown, which carves through the terrain to support the region's intensive farming. In the southwest, the topography shifts abruptly toward the Ciervo Hills, where the seasonal Arroyo Ciervo drains toward the valley floor. Researchers will find numerous groundwater sources scattered across the map, such as Well 315, and specialized infrastructure like the Oil Pumping Station, reflecting the area's reliance on both water extraction and energy transport at Panoche Junction.
