About this map

Nellis Afb anchors the southeastern portion of this landscape, positioned where the suburban expansion of North Las Vegas and Sunrise Manor meets the open expanse of the Mojave Desert. The map documents a moment of rapid residential growth, with named subdivisions and planned thoroughfares like Bruce Woodbury Belt and E Centennial Pky carving into the arid terrain. To the north, the elevation rises sharply toward the Las Vegas Range, accessed by rugged routes such as Gass Peak Rd.

Smaller geographic points like Valley and Lovell mark the transition between the dense residential street grids and the stark desert periphery. The contrast between the rigid geometry of neighborhood streets, such as Carisbrook Ave and Dublin Bay Ave, and the natural contours of the northern hills illustrates the ongoing transformation of the Clark County landscape into a modern metropolitan corridor.
