About this map

Francis E Warren Air Force Base dominates the western landscape of this 1961 survey, where the expanding footprint of Wyoming's capital city meets the high plains. The map illustrates a city in transition, with purple revisions from 1970 showing the growth of neighborhoods like Western Hills and the development of the Buffalo Ridge Sch area. Historically significant sites such as Frontier Park, the famed rodeo grounds, sit near Lions Park and the chain of urban lakes including Sloan Lake and Lake Absarraca. The downtown core is densely detailed, featuring St Mary Cathedral, the First Presbyterian Ch, and civic landmarks like the Museum and City Hall. To the south, the industrial influence of the Union Pacific and Burlington Northern railroads is evident near the Oil Refinery, while the Cheyenne Municipal Airport anchors the northeastern expansion.
