2019 Map of Elsmere

About this map

Peterson Air Force Base and the City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport dominate the central landscape of this eastern Colorado Springs survey. The geography reflects a significant intersection of military aviation and educational infrastructure, featuring campuses for Pikes Peak Community College and Webster University. Settlement patterns are concentrated in the residential corridors of Cimarron Hills and Elsmere to the north, while the southern reach extends toward Fountain and the community of Security. To the east, the terrain transitions into open drainage basins such as Jimmy Camp Creek and several managed water bodies including Banning Lewis Reservoir Number 8 and the expansive Big Johnson Reservoir near Skinner Hill. This area serves as a primary logistical and transport hub for El Paso County, connected by major thoroughfares like S Powers Blvd and E Platte Ave.
