That last one does the trick, DK.
But any GPS that handles Mexico roads will give you all the streets for many blocks as you drive the area. I have a Garmin in every vehicle now. Yes,
my vehicles came with GPS installed in them but once past the border, Mexico disappears. The factory upgrades to include the Mexico streets are
$300-$500 USD, and it was cheaper to buy a Garmin for about $75.00 USD.
BTW...the Garmins also show the dirt roads.

Hi Udo, this thread was a request by a new Nomad that sent me a u2u and who was interested in seeing old Ensenada city maps and maybe the growth to
today? I think Google Maps and other programs show the city as it is now if one needs a map for driving assistance?

I liked the note for the coast road to the docks (road closed), the boulders from that hillside were as big as two story house.
Always terrified of those rocks as a kid

You also can see the Hotel Riviera Pacifico was on the waterfront back then. I think the BahÃa Hotel was also on the beach before the harbor project,
landfills, etc.
