1965 Map of Fitzsimons

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Fitzsimons General Hospital and Buckley Air National Guard Base dominate the landscape of eastern Aurora during a period of rapid suburban expansion. This 1965 survey, updated with 1971 revisions, illustrates the conversion of open land into dense residential neighborhoods, particularly around Altura and south of Colfax Ave. The sprawling military and medical installations are bordered by a dense network of new educational facilities, including Hinkley High Sch and North Jr High Sch, reflecting the postwar baby boom's impact on local infrastructure.
