About this map

Luke Air Force Base occupies the southeastern corner of this Maricopa County landscape, where the flat desert floor meets the rising slopes of the White Tank Mts. This late-1950s survey documents a highly organized agricultural and military corridor defined by a rigid grid of roads like Bethany Home Road and Waddell Avenue. Major water management infrastructure, including the Trilby Wash Detention Basin and the White Tank Mts. Detention Basin Levee, protects the nascent settlements and farms from mountain runoff.
