1948 Map of Fitzsimons

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

Fitzsimons General Hospital anchors the northwestern corner of this landscape, marking a significant federal presence on the outskirts of Denver. The surrounding area in Arapahoe and Adams counties reveals a mix of early suburban expansion and vast military and public lands. The U S Military Reservation and the sprawling Lowry Field Bombing Range Military Reservation dominate the eastern and southern sections, while the serpentine course of the Highline Canal cuts across the terrain, providing essential water to the high plains.
