2015 Map of Monterey

About this map

The Monterey Peninsula shoreline dominates this 2015 study, documenting the dense urban grid and rugged coastal points from Pacific Grove down to the Carmel Highlands. The map illustrates the region's concentration of educational and military institutions, including the Defense Language Institute and the Monterey Institute of International Studies. Moving south, the terrain transitions into the iconic landscapes of Pebble Beach and the artistic enclave of Carmel-by-the-Sea. Inland, the relief of Huckleberry Hill and the Santa Lucia Range provides a contrast to the Pacific frontage. For those researching local development, the survey captures the established residential patterns of New Monterey and the industrial heritage surrounding Cannery Row, alongside preserved spaces like El Encinal Cemetery and the protected waters of Carmel Bay.
