About this map

Colorado Springs serves as the focal point of this 1942 wartime-era study, which reveals the expanding footprint of the Camp Carson Military Reservation to the south. The rail network of the era is remarkably dense, featuring the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific RR and the Manitou and Pikes Peak Ry climbing toward the summit of Pikes Peak. Local landmarks like the Printers Home and the grand estate at Glen Eyrie reflect the region's diverse development from healthcare to private retreats.
