1950 Map of Malibu Beach

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Malibu Beach and the shoreline of Santa Monica Bay meet the steep slopes of the Santa Monica Mountains in this early 1950s survey. The landscape is defined by ranching and private retreats before heavy suburban development, featuring properties like Century Ranch, Brown Ranch, and Stunts Ranch. Inland, the map captures a rural character with landmarks such as the Salvation Army Camp and the now-abandoned Las Virgenes Sch. The Pacific Coast Highway skirts the coast, providing access to Las Flores and Malibu Pt, while the Mulholland Highway winds through the northern canyons. Public spaces and infrastructure are emerging at Tapia Park and the Monte Nido Fire Sta, while the San Bernardino Base Line provides a foundational surveying reference across the northern section of the sheet.
