1916 Map of Mare Island

USGS Topo · Published 1927

About this map

The Mare Island Navy Yard anchors this 1916 survey, sitting at the junction of the Napa River and the Carquinez Strait. During the mid-1910s, this region was a complex landscape of tidal marshes and emerging industry, where the Southern Pacific and Northwestern Pacific railroads threaded through the reclaimed lands and sloughs. The map documents early industrial sites such as Nitro, Hercules, and Oleum along the southern shore, while the northern reaches transitions into the agricultural Pueblo Lands of Sonoma.
