1894 Map of Los Angeles

USGS Topo · Published 1894

About this map

The Los Angeles River serves as the central artery for a region undergoing rapid transformation from ranchlands to a dense rail-and-residential network. Significant portions of the landscape remain defined by Spanish land grants, including Ex Mission San Fernando and San Pasqual, even as new settlements like Glendale and Burbank emerge along the Southern Pacific R. R. routes. To the north, the steep terrain of the San Gabriel Timber Land Reserve is already becoming a recreational destination, evidenced by the Mt. Lowe Hotel and the incline toward Echo Mt.
