1964 Map of South Gate

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The industrial and residential heart of the Gateway Cities comes into sharp focus during a period of intense post-war expansion. This survey of South Gate and its neighbors reveals a landscape defined by the convergence of major transit arteries and the Los Angeles River. The map documents the dense urban grid extending from Huntington Park and Lynwood through Compton, illustrating the rapid growth of these communities. Purple revisions from the early 1980s highlight the further densification of suburbs like Cudahy and Bell Gardens.
