1965 Map of Fitzsimons

About this map

Aurora expands across the high plains of Arapahoe and Adams counties in this 1965 survey, updated with 1978 photogrammetric revisions. The landscape is defined by its massive military and institutional footprints, most notably the Fitzsimons Medical Center and the Air National Guard Base at Buckley. These sprawling complexes, alongside Lowry Air Force Base, anchor the mid-century suburban development that is rapidly filling in the grid between Colfax Ave and the Military Reservation Boundary.
