About this map

The Santa Ana River carves a central path through this southern California landscape, separating the rugged heights of Mt Rubidoux from the expanding neighborhoods of Jurupa Valley and Rubidoux. This record of the modern city layout captures the intricate network of water management essential to the region, including the Gage Canal, Riverside Canal, and the Arlington Valley Channel. To the south, the terrain transitions into the more open spaces of Mockingbird Canyon and the Mockingbird Reservoir, while the urban core is anchored by institutional landmarks such as Riverside City College and the Riverside County Historic Courthouse.

Transportation and education hubs define the western reaches, with the Riverside Municipal Airport and Arlington Station serving as vital transit points. Established residential areas like Casa Blanca, Arlanza, and Arlington are shown in high detail alongside major academic campuses including California Baptist University and La Sierra University. Genealogists and local historians can locate significant burial grounds such as Evergreen Memorial Park and Mausoleum and Olivewood Memorial Park, which reflect the long-standing community history of Riverside.
