1983 Map of Medford East

About this map

Phoenix and the smaller settlements of Larson and Voorhies define the southern corridor of this 1983 survey, situated along the fertile agricultural and residential margins of the Rogue Valley. The landscape is characterized by the transition from the urbanized edges of Medford to the rising elevations of the Cascade foothills, most notably at Roxy Ann Peak within Prescott Park. This era shows a community in mid-growth, balancing significant public infrastructure like the Medford-Jackson County Airport, Providence Hospital, and Rogue Valley Memorial Hosp with the natural drainage systems of Bear Creek and Larson Creek.
