1959 Map of Oakland East

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The urban footprint of the East Bay is seen here in a period of significant post-war expansion, with the densely developed corridors of Oakland, Berkeley, and Piedmont pushing against the ridge lines of the East Bay Hills. This 1959 survey captures the region's complex geography, from the Oakland Inner Harbor and Tidal Canal to the expansive parklands of Redwood Regional Park and Joaquin Miller Park. The map preserves the historic land divisions of the San Antonio (A M Peralta) and V and D Peralta grants, anchoring the modern grid to its Spanish rancho roots.
