1968 Map of Stockton West

About this map

The Port of Stockton serves as the focal point of this industrial and maritime hub, where the San Joaquin River and Deep Water Channel meet the Turning Basin. This late-1960s landscape shows the city's complex relationship with its waterways, featuring expansive tracts like the Moss Tract and Sargent-Barnhart Tract alongside the heavy infrastructure of the US Naval Reservation on Rough and Ready Island. The city's social and institutional fabric is densely mapped, from the University of the Pacific and Stockton State Hospital to a significant cluster of religious and memorial sites including the Stockton Rural Cemetery, Hebrew Cem, and Adas Yeshuran Cem. To the south, the transition from urban density to industrial logistics is evident near French Camp and the Sharpe Army Depot (Field Annex), while a network of railroads like the Stockton Terminal and Eastern ties the waterfront to the valley's interior.
