About this map

Sea Cliff and the industrial activity of the early 1950s California coast define this survey, where the narrow strip of land between the steep foothills and the Pacific Ocean is crowded with infrastructure. Along this corridor, the Southern Pacific railroad and Highway 101 follow the natural curve of the shoreline. The hillsides above are heavily marked by petroleum extraction, specifically noted by clusters of Oil Wells and an Oil Sump near Madranio Canyon.
