1967 Map of Riverside East

About this map

March Air Force Base and the University of California Riverside anchor this mid-century survey of Riverside's eastern expansion. The map details the transition from the city's urban core to the rising suburban developments of Edgemont, Sunnymead, and Canyon Crest Heights. Transportation networks are heavily represented, from the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railway and the Union Pacific lines to the newly constructed Riverside Freeway and Escondido Freeway, which define the era's shift toward automobile dominance.
