1954 Map of Santa Cruz

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Santa Cruz and its coastal surroundings are captured here at a moment of significant mid-century expansion. The urban footprint, highlighted in purple, shows development pushing northward toward the Univ of Calif Santa Cruz and along the eastern corridors of Soquel Ave and Morrissey Blvd. Along the shoreline, the iconic Boardwalk and Municipal Pier anchor the city’s identity, while the Southern Pacific tracks trace the coast westward past Natural Bridges Beach State Park.
