About this map

Industrial developments and tidal marshlands dominate this mid-century coastal landscape where Suisun Bay meets the Carquinez Strait. The era's logistical footprint is evident in the expansive Naval Reservation at Port Chicago and the significant Oil Refinery infrastructure near Avon (Associated PO). These facilities are linked by a dense rail network, including the Southern Pacific and Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe lines, which navigate the low-lying terrain alongside Pacheco Creek.
