1949 Map of Sacramento West

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

The Sacramento River and its complex system of levees and bypasses dominate this landscape at the intersection of Sacramento and Yolo counties. This 1940s record illustrates the managed hydrology of the region, featuring the massive Sacramento By-Pass and Yolo By-Pass designed to protect the growing urban centers. While the east bank shows the dense grid of Sacramento, the west bank reveals the distinct early communities of Bryte, Broderick, and West Sacramento before their later consolidation.
