1949 Map of Montara Mountain

About this map

The San Francisco International Airport occupies the northeastern shoreline in this late-1940s survey of the San Mateo coast. The landscape is defined by the sharp contrast between the burgeoning bayside suburbs of San Bruno, Millbrae, and Burlingame and the steep, undeveloped ridgelines of Montara Mountain. Central to the geography is the Rift Zone, which contains major water infrastructure including San Andreas Lake and the Lower Crystal Springs Reservoir.
