1951 Map of McCoy Wash

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Mesaville sits at the edge of the Palo Verde Mesa in this desert landscape, where civil engineering projects attempted to manage the seasonal flows of McCoy Wash. The topography is dominated by the sprawling alluvial fan and a complex network of protective infrastructure, including a Diversion Dike and various levees designed to steer runoff away from the growing agricultural and transportation hubs. To the south, the Blythe Airport and the planned grid of the Palo Verde Canal system illustrate the mid-century transformation of the Colorado River valley into a productive zone.
