1956 Map of Sacramento
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
The confluence of the Sacramento River and the American River anchors this regional study, which captures the Central Valley and the rising slopes of the Sierra Nevada during the mid-1950s. The urban sprawl of Sacramento is clearly visible, showing the early footprints of McClellan Air Force Base and Mather Air Force Base alongside the prominent State Capitol. To the west, the campus of the University of California, Davis sits at the edge of the agriculturally intensive Yolo County lands, while the southern reaches of the map detail the complex waterway networks of the Sacramento River delta and Suisun Bay.
