1955 Map of Watsonville East

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Pajaro River valley serves as a geographic and industrial corridor in the mid-1950s, defining the boundary where Santa Cruz, Monterey, and San Benito counties meet. Agriculture and rail transportation dominate the landscape, centered on the bustling hub of Watsonville and the critical Watsonville Junction. The Southern Pacific railroad tracks trace the valley floor, passing through the narrow Pajaro Gap at Chittenden Pass, where a quarry highlights the local mineral industry.
