Description
This circa 1963 postcard provides an aerial view (facing north) of the Interstate 80 (Now the Capital City Freeway) and Highway 50 Interchange, the latter under renovation. Highway 50 saw a widening when added to the California Expressway and Highway System in 1959 to address growing traffic in Sacramento. Newton Booth School is seen on the center left (cluster of red buildings), while the Campbell Soup Cannery is seen on the center right (north of Highway 50). The American River can be seen near the top of the image.
