1964 Map of Long Beach
USGS Topo · Published 1987About this map
The Queen Mary sits berthed in the Long Beach Channel, serving as a permanent landmark at the edge of a massive maritime and industrial landscape. This mid-century survey captures Long Beach and its neighbors during a period of intense urban expansion, where the grid of residential neighborhoods like Bixby Knolls and Los Altos pushes against the vast infrastructure of the U S Naval Shipyard and the Inner Harbor. The influence of the petroleum industry is unmistakable, with Oil Field derricks and Oil Refinery tanks dotting the landscape from Dominguez Hills to the famous heights of Signal Hill.
