About this map

Mission San Jose and the surrounding agricultural valleys are the focal point of this mid-century landscape, where the transit lines of the Southern Pacific and Western Pacific railroads converge. The map documents a significant intersection of early California history and modern utility, featuring the historic Mission San Jose de Guadalupe alongside massive infrastructure like the Hetch Hetchy Aqueduct. The area around Niles shows the industrial footprint of the era, including a prominent Pottery Plant and extensive Gravel Pits near the banks of Alameda Creek.
