1944 Map of Redondo

About this map

Santa Monica Bay defines the western edge of this wartime landscape, where the sprawling industrialization of South Bay and the Palos Verdes Peninsula is caught mid-expansion. The map reveals a dense network of early petroleum and manufacturing infrastructure, including the Standard Oil Co Refinery at El Segundo and the Columbia Steel Corporation in Torrance. These industrial hubs are linked by the extensive Pacific Electric railway lines, which served both commuters and freight long before the freeway era dominated Los Angeles.
