About this map

Aurora expansion dominates this mid-century landscape, showing the rapid conversion of open prairie into suburban neighborhoods east of Denver. The sheet is anchored by significant military and federal installations, most notably the expansive Fitzsimons General Hospital and Lowry Air Force Base. To the east, the Buckley Air National Guard Base sits near the drainage of Sand Creek, illustrating the heavy federal footprint in the region.
