1948 Map of Paso Robles

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

San Miguel and Paso Robles anchor this late 1940s landscape, positioned along the vital corridor of the Southern Pacific railroad and the Salinas River. The map highlights a rural California transition, where the Camp Roberts Military Reservation occupies the northwest and the State School For Boys sits toward the east. Cultural landmarks like the San Miguel Mission and the Old Adobe provide a deep sense of place among the winding drainages of Huerhuero Creek and San Jacinto Creek. Numerous windmills are scattered across the terrain, illustrating the importance of groundwater for small settlements like Wellsona and Oak Park. The grid of Paso Robles shows early urban development, including the Fair Grounds and City Hall, just south of where the Estrella River meets the Salinas.
