About this map

Lemmon Valley serves as the focal point of this Nevada landscape, transitioning from the high peaks of Freds Mountain and Hungry Mountain into a growing residential and industrial corridor. The residential grid is well-defined by streets such as Alaska St, Arkansas St, and Patrician Drive, reflecting the mid-century expansion of Reno toward the north. This growth is anchored by the Reno-Stead Airport, a significant regional landmark that occupies a substantial portion of the western valley floor.

Industrial and municipal activity is evident through features like the Sewage Disposal facility, several Sandpit locations, and various Prospects and a Mine tucked into the eastern hills. Purple photorevisions indicate the rapid suburbanization of the era, particularly around the Trailer Park and Lemmon Valley Sch. The presence of large Settling Ponds and a Water Tank underscores the infrastructure required to support the arid region's developing communities between Antelope Valley and Hungry Valley.
