1959 Map of San Quentin

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Richmond - San Rafael Bridge anchors this mid-century survey of the North Bay, connecting the industrial waterfront of Richmond to the peninsula at San Quentin. This area was a critical maritime and military hub during the post-war era, dominated by large-scale facilities such as the Naval Fuel Supply Depot and the Tiburon Naval Net Depot at Pt Chauncey. While the iconic San Quentin State Prison stands at the western bridgehead, the surrounding hillsides show the emerging residential patterns of Paradise Cay and Belvedere.
