1967 Map of Reno

About this map

The Reno and Sparks urban core is captured here during a period of rapid mid-century expansion into the surrounding high desert. The course of the Truckee River serves as the central anchor for the valley, bordered by the established neighborhoods and the extensive University of Nevada campus. Evidence of the region’s older foundations is visible in the Reno Indian Colony and historical burial grounds like Mountain View Cem and the Mother of Sorrows Cemetery.
