1950 Map of Point Dume

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Santa Monica Mountains dominate the landscape in this mid-century survey, revealing a coastal region where development follows the winding paths of canyons and ridges. Small interior settlements like Lobo and Cornell are centered around the local watershed, with the Cornell Sch and nearby Seminole Hot Springs serving as community focal points. The northern boundary is defined by the San Bernardino Base Line, while the peaks are marked by the Castro Pk Lookout. Along the shoreline, the map details the early footprints of coastal living at Malibu Riviera and Malibu Vista. The infrastructure of the era is anchored by the Mulholland Highway, which snakes through the interior, connecting remote canyons like Zuma Canyon and Trancas Canyon to the Pacific coast. Water features like Malibu Lake and Lake Enchanto illustrate the early 20th-century trend of creating recreational mountain retreats.
