About this map

San Diego sits at the heart of this mid-century coastal survey, illustrating the significant naval and marine presence during the early Cold War era. Military installations like NAS Miramar, Naval Air Station North Island, and the Fort Rosecrans Military Reservation dominate the landscape surrounding the city and its harbor. The map traces the international border south of San Ysidro into Mexico, highlighting the proximity of Tijuana and the surrounding Mexican terrain such as the Presa Rodriguez reservoir.
