1965 Map of Whittier
USGS Topo · Published 1967About this map
The San Gabriel River and Rio Hondo define the western landscape of this mid-1960s Los Angeles County survey, where suburban expansion meets the foothills of the Puente Hills. The area shows a dense concentration of educational and medical institutions, including Whittier College, Biola College, and the sprawling grounds of the Metropolitan State Hospital. Large-scale land use is further evidenced by the massive Rose Hills Memorial Park and the Whittier Narrows Recreation Area in the northwest.
