1964 Map of Venice

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Marina del Rey and its series of numbered basins anchor this mid-1960s coastal landscape, showcasing the rapid post-war transformation of the Los Angeles shoreline. The map captures the massive footprint of Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) just north of the Sausal Redondo boundary, surrounded by booming residential developments like Westchester and El Segundo. Higher education and spiritual life are represented by Loyola University and several parochial schools, such as St Bernard High Sch, while the industrial character of the era is evident in the numerous Oil Wells and Oil Reservoirs scattered near Manhattan Beach. Inland, the historic Aguaje de la Centinela land grant remains as a named boundary, contrasting with the modern path of the San Diego Freeway and the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor. This survey documents the intersection of California’s historic ranchos with the infrastructure of the jet age.
