1935 Map of Sylmar

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

The northern reaches of the Ex Mission San Fernando meet the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains in this mid-century topographic survey. The landscape is defined by a dense grid of residential and agricultural plots south of the Los Angeles City Boundary, where the community of Sylmar is anchored by the Southern Pacific railroad and major thoroughfares like Foothill Boulevard. To the north, the terrain rises sharply into the San Gabriel National Forest, carved by numerous drainages such as Placerita Canyon and Whitney Canyon.
