About this map

Industrial expansion and maritime infrastructure dominate this 1923 survey of the Los Angeles harbor district. The landscape is undergoing a massive transformation, visible in the complex network of artificial waterways like Cerritos Channel and the numbered basins surrounding Terminal Island. The Union Oil Co of California (Ref) reflects the era's booming petroleum industry, while the proximity of Fort Mc Arthur Upper Reservation and the lower reservation underscores the strategic military importance of the coastline.
