1973 Map of Mojave NE

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

California City sits at the heart of this high desert landscape, showing the ambitious mid-century planning of a master-planned community in the Antelope Valley and Fremont Valley. The grid of proposed streets, such as Lindbergh Blvd, Cheyenne Blvd, and Poppy Blvd, extends far into the desert, illustrating a moment of significant speculative growth. To the west, the Barren Ridge rises sharply, bisected by the Los Angeles Aqueduct, a critical piece of infrastructure that winds through the foothills near Tree Canyon. The map reveals the contrast between the rigid geometric layout of the developing city and the topographical complexity of the nearby ridges and canyons, where siphons and springs denote the essential movement of water through this arid environment.
