Maps of the Berkeley Area Available Online

Below are digital links to some hard-to-find ancient maps of Berkeley and the area that was to become Berkeley.

• 1856 - Kellersberger Map

  One of the earliest maps of Oakland and what would become Berkeley. Berkeley now incorporates much of what is labeled as plots # 51, 53, 55-71, & 74-94.

• 1874 - Map of Berkeley showing the property of the Berkeley Land and Town Improvement Association

• 1875 - University of California Berkeley Map

• 1878-Present Map Overlays

  This is a link to an interesting commercial website with the ability to view the Oakland-Berkeley areas (and many other places, too) as they looked in 1878. Plus the site has the ability to overlay the historic maps over a modern google map of the same areas. The library makes NO guarantees about purchasing from the website.
