1900 Map of Los Angeles

USGS Topo · Published 1915

About this map

Los Angeles River and its surrounding ranchos and canyons define this turn-of-the-century landscape, captured before the mid-century suburban expansion. The city of Los Angeles is concentrated around Elysian Park, while the northern reaches show the early foothill settlements of Burbank, Glendale, and Altadena. The era of luxury resort travel is prominent, with landmarks like the Echo Mountain Mt. Lowe Hotel, the Raymond Hotel, and the Sierra Madre Hotel serving as destinations at the edge of the Angelus National Forest.
