1966 Map of Coal Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

Buckley Air National Guard Base dominates the western edge of this landscape, marking a significant military presence in the high plains east of Denver. The terrain is defined by a series of north-flowing seasonal drainages, including Coal Creek, Murphy Creek, and Senac Creek, which carve subtle valleys across the prairie. While the Aurora Corporate Boundary is shown expanding into this area, much of the sheet depicts a transitional environment where agricultural land meets emerging suburban and industrial features. Notable specialized landmarks include the Aurora Airpark and the Arapahoe Park Racetrack, alongside essential infrastructure like a series of Gravel Pits and a prominent Pipeline. Genealogists and local historians can locate Eastlawn Memorial Gardens (Cem) near the northern border and Eaglecrest High Sch to the south, reflecting the community’s mid-century civic growth.
