About this map

Phoenix South Mountain Park dominates the landscape, showing the transition from the rugged mountain interior to the burgeoning outskirts of the valley in the early 1950s. The map illustrates a heavy institutional presence along the northern park boundary, including the Phoenix Police Academy, YMCA Camp, and the Phoenix Gun Club Rifle Ranges. This area reflects a mid-century period of civic development where public lands were utilized for specialized training and community recreation, including the South Mountain Speedway.
