1947 Map of Seaside

About this map

The Fort Ord Military Reservation and the growing urban centers of Seaside and Del Rey Oaks define the northern landscape of this mid-century survey. While the coast is dominated by industrial and military presence, including the Southern Pacific rail line and the U S Navy Post Graduate Sch, the inland areas reflect a more rural, topographical character. The map identifies specific early property holdings and ranch sites such as James Meadows, Los Laurelles (Ranson), and Corral De Tierra (Mc Cobb), which are essential for tracing local land ownership history.
