Description

The image is a detailed map titled "Unit No. 2, Haciendas Del Orinda, Contra Costa County, California," created by J.H.L'Hommedieu & Co., Civil and Subdivision Engineers, in October 1924. It depicts a series of plotted land sections, each numbered for identification, and is drawn to a scale where one inch equals 100 feet. Notable features include curved roads like "El Sueno," "Camino Sobrante," and "La Espiral," with several parcels of land outlined and numbered, reflecting a subdivision layout. The map borders the Orinda Country Club and E.I. DeLaveaga's land, showing a snapshot of the planned development structure during that time period. Additionally, there are specific markings and notes such as those for pipe monuments, providing technical insights into infrastructure planning.
