1931 Map of Towne Oil Station

USGS Topo · Published 1931

About this map

Towne Oil Station serves as the focal point for this 1931 survey of the Fresno County landscape, illustrating a period of agricultural and industrial transition in California's Central Valley. The grid of early county roads, including Davis Ave and Mt Whitney Ave, defines the geometric organization of the territory, which was increasingly shaped by large-scale commercial operations. The presence of Kings County Dev Co Farm No 1 and Kings County Dev Co Farm No 2 suggests the influence of development companies in transforming the arid valley floor into productive land.
