1996 Map of Tucson East

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Davis-Monthan Air Force Base anchor the landscape of southeastern Tucson in the late 1990s, where suburban expansion meets the desert washes of the Santa Cruz Valley. The map captures a high-growth era, showing the transition from dense residential developments like Vandenberg Village and Littleton to the industrial and aeronautical spaces near the Pima Air & Space Museum. Watercourses such as Pantano Wash and Agua Caliente Wash cut through the grid of major thoroughfares like Speedway Blvd and Golf Links Road, defining the natural drainage patterns of the basin. Commercial hubs, including the Park Mall and Oxford Plaza Shopping Center, reflect the mid-to-late century retail boom that transformed this part of Pima County. Farther south, the tracks of the Southern Pacific railroad parallel the edge of the Tucson Corporate Bdy, marking the intersection of regional transportation and urban limits.
