About this map

Palo Verde Mesa and the Palo Verde Valley dominate this early 1950s landscape, showcasing the sharp transition between arid highlands and the engineered agricultural lands of Riverside County. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts a diagonal line across the desert floor, passing through the small settlement of Mesaville. This era of development is marked by significant hydraulic infrastructure, including a series of levees, a Diversion Dike, and the Irrigation Canal which supported the valley's growth.
