About this map

The Pacific Ocean coastline anchors this detailed 2018 survey of coastal Orange County, where the Santa Ana River Trail & Parkway serves as a central artery through a densely developed landscape. The map captures the sophisticated water management systems required for this urban corridor, featuring the E Garden Grove Wintersburg Channel, Paularino Channel, and Talbert Channel. These engineered waterways define the boundaries between established communities like Fountain Valley and Costa Mesa.

Educational institutions and major landmarks are prominent, including Vanguard Univ of Southern California and Orange Coast College. For local historians, the inclusion of Smeltzer and significant sites like Westminster Memorial Park provides a clear view of the area's mid-century growth and contemporary layout. The southern edge of the map highlights the natural geography of Big Canyon and North Star Beach near the Newport Beach shoreline.
