About this map

Oil Wells and storage infrastructure dominate the coastal shelf of this 1951 survey, reflecting the intensive petroleum activity along the Ventura coastline. The Southern Pacific railroad and Highway 101 hug the narrow strip of land between the steep ascent of Rincon Mtn and the Santa Barbara Channel, creating a compressed corridor of transportation and industry. Small settlements like Sea Cliff and Punta are tucked into this transition zone, where the hills meet the tide.
