1961 Map of San Jose East

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Santa Clara Valley undergoes significant postwar transformation as the city limits of San Jose expand eastward toward the foothills of the Diablo Range. This era is defined by the burgeoning suburban landscape of Evergreen and Edenvale, where residential tracts began to replace the orchards that long characterized the region. Important community landmarks such as the County Fairgrounds, Oak Hill Memorial Park (Cem), and the San Jose Speedway are clearly established, while industrial history is still visible at the Hillsdale Mine and New North Almaden Mine.
