2019 Map of Arvada

About this map

Arvada and its neighboring municipalities occupy a landscape defined by an intricate network of water management, where historic irrigation routes like the Farmers High Line Canal and Croke Canal run alongside modern suburban expansion. The western edge is anchored by the significant waters of Standley Lake, while the southern reaches contain the expansive grounds of the Olinger Crown Hill Mortuary and Cem and the waters of Crown Hill Lake. Educational institutions are prominent across the quadrangle, from Regis University in the southeast to the Red Rocks Community College Arvada Campus. A legacy of earlier transportation is visible in the W 51st Ave Interurban Trail, while the eastern industrial and rail corridor near Utah Junction provides a contrast to the residential patterns of Wheat Ridge and Sherrelwood.
