1916 Map of Santa Rosa

About this map

Santa Rosa serves as the central hub of this 1914 survey, where the Northwestern Pacific railroad corridor meets the developing State Highway. The landscape is defined by the broad Llano de Santa Rosa and Cotati Valley to the west, contrasted with the steep elevations of the Sonoma Mountains and the Mayacamas Mountains to the east. Smaller settlements like Kenwood, Glen Ellen, and Cotati are linked by the rail networks of the Southern Pacific, which snakes through Los Guilicos and the eastern canyons.
