1953 Map of National City
USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
The urban landscape of National City and Chula Vista is depicted here during a period of significant post-war expansion along the San Diego Bay. The map highlights the heavy military and industrial presence of the era, dominated by the San Diego Naval Station and the Chollas Heights Naval Radio Sta. Inland, the terrain transitions from the densely gridded streets of East San Diego and Encanto to the winding canyons of Paradise Valley and Telegraph Canyon.
