About this map

Denver and its southern suburbs are shown here in the late twentieth century, revealing a landscape defined by dense residential growth and extensive public green spaces. The map details the prestigious campus of the University of Denver and the grounds of St Marys Academy, surrounded by neighborhood institutions like the Knight Sch and Cory Sch. This period captures the commercial peak of major regional hubs including the Cherry Creek Shopping Center and the sprawling Cinderella City Shopping Center near Englewood.

Water management and recreation are central to the terrain, with Cherry Creek winding past Four Mile Historic Park toward the reservoir at Cherry Creek State Park. Extensive cemetery grounds such as Fairmount Cemetery and Mount Olivet Cemetery provide significant genealogical landmarks. The map also documents the footprint of Lowry Air Force Base along the eastern edge, alongside a concentrated corridor of healthcare facilities like the Veterans Affairs Medical Center.
