About this map

Alameda Naval Air Station and the sprawling industrial docks of the Oakland Outer Harbor dominate the waterfront in this mid-century survey of the East Bay. The map illustrates a period of intense infrastructure growth, featuring the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge (Toll Bridge) connecting the mainland to Treasure Island and Yerba Buena Island. Inland, the urban grid of Oakland and Berkeley is densely packed with neighborhood institutions, including Oakland City College (Merritt Campus) and Technical High Sch.
