1959 Map of Richmond
USGS Topo · Published 1960About this map
The heavy industrial footprint of Richmond and the East Bay waterfront is clearly visible in this late 1950s survey. Extensive infrastructure including the Oil Tank Farm near San Pablo Bay and the busy Richmond Inner Harbor define the western shoreline. Inland, the map captures a period of intense post-war suburban growth as residential streets push east into the hills of San Pablo Ridge and up against the wilder terrain of Charles Lee Tilden Regional Park.
