Formal street naming in Santa Cruz began in 1866, with publication of the first “Map of the Town of Santa Cruz”, Santa Cruz Sentinel, Jun 23, 1866, 2:4. Many streets got names for the first time: River, Potrero (the northern half is now Evergreen), High, Water, Mission, Union, Green, Cross, and Rincon. The map also showed property boundaries and owner names. The Sentinel article included a list of those names.

Extension/completion of Cedar (Vine), Center, and Chestnut streets in the 1960s.
