1906 Map of Pleasanton

About this map

The Livermore Valley and the Valle de San Jose anchor this early twentieth-century study of the East Bay interior. The landscape is defined by the convergence of several major watercourses, including Arroyo de la Laguna and Arroyo del Valle, which join near the established settlements of Pleasanton and Livermore. The mapping highlights the infrastructure of the Southern Pacific and the Niles and Sacramento Line, illustrating how rail connectivity drove the growth of agricultural hubs and post offices like Dougherty P O.
