1957 Map of Denver

About this map

The Front Range of the Rockies meets the expanding Colorado capital in this mid-century portrait of a region defined by post-war growth and military infrastructure. Centered on Denver, the landscape is partitioned between the densely built urban core and a series of massive federal installations, including the Rocky Mountain Arsenal and Lowry AF Base. To the east, the plains of the Bijou Valley are marked by lonely railroad stops along the Union Pacific RR such as Deer Trail and Agate.
