1957 Map of Tucson North

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The northern reaches of Tucson are captured here during a period of significant mid-century expansion into the foothills. The city's northward movement is evident in the dense residential street grids south of Rillito Creek, while the land to the north remains relatively open, dominated by institutional sites like the University of Arizona Farm and the Rilvito Park and Race Track. This transition from urban development to the high desert is punctuated by many educational foundations, from the Amphitheater High School to the Valley School For Girls.
