Twentynine Palms and its surrounding desert neighborhoods appear here in the early 1970s, showcasing a landscape transitioning from remote ranching and mining roots to a permanent military and residential community. The presence of the Twentynine Palms Marine Corps Base to the north anchors the area, while the town center features established locales like The Plaza and Four Corners. Small settlements and named high points such as Harmony Acres, Noels Knoll, and Chocolate Drop dot the grid of developing roads.
