1959 Map of Canon City

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Arkansas River corridor in the late 1950s serves as the industrial and agricultural backbone for several Fremont County communities. The map detail highlights a complex network of irrigation, including the Park Center Ditch, Oil Creek Ditch, and Hydraulic Ditch, which supported the orchards of Orchard Park and East Canon. The southern reaches of Canon City show a transition from the urban grid to more specialized land use, such as the extensive State Prison Farm and the residential layouts of Lincoln Park and Prospect Heights.
