1950 Map of West of Lethent

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Agricultural development and industrial planning define this mid-century landscape in Fresno County. Surveyed by J.L. Lewis, the region exhibits a rigid, car-centric nomenclature with parallel thoroughfares named after early automotive manufacturers, including Packard Avenue, Ford Avenue, and Chandler Avenue. This 1950 edition captures the systematic grid of the San Joaquin Valley just as the postwar period accelerated regional land use. The alignment of secondary routes like Lassen Avenue and Siskiyou Avenue provides a clear framework for local-history researchers tracing land parcels and original property boundaries in this productive interior valley. The topography remains relatively uniform, emphasizing the human engineering applied to the terrain through these surveyed lines.
