USGS Topo · Published 1948About this map
Monterey Bay serves as the focal point for this post-war landscape, where the agricultural corridors of the Salinas River and San Benito River meet the Pacific. The presence of significant military installations like the Fort Ord Military Reservation and Monterey NAAS reflects the strategic coastal importance of the era. Along the historic route of El Camino Real, established settlements such as Watsonville, Salinas, and the mission town of San Juan Bautista anchor the regional economy.
