1958 Map of San Diego
USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
The coastal shelf of San Diego and its mountainous backcountry are captured here just as the post-war suburban boom was reshaping Southern California. The urban core around San Diego Bay and National City is balanced by a massive military footprint, including Miramar NAS, NAS North Island, and the Camp Elliott Naval Reservation. Beyond the growing residential tracts of La Mesa and El Cajon, the landscape rises sharply into the Cleveland National Forest, where high-elevation landmarks like Cuyamaca Peak watch over a network of vital water resources including El Capitan Reservoir and Barrett Lake.
