About this map

Sparks serves as the industrial and residential anchor at the western edge of this mid-century survey, where the grid of the city meets the Truckee River floodplain. The landscape is defined by the vital movement of water and freight, with the Southern Pacific tracks and Irrigation Ditch systems like the Orr Ditch cutting through the meadows. To the south, the Dominican Brothers Monastery stands near the confluence of Steamboat Creek, illustrating the local institutional presence alongside industrial infrastructure like the Sewage Disposal plant and numerous oil tanks.
