1965 Map of Fitzsimons

About this map

Aurora and eastern Denver sit at a major military and suburban crossroads during this mid-1960s survey, with extensive revisions documenting the rapid eastward expansion of the metropolitan area by 1980. The landscape is dominated by significant federal installations, including the Fitzsimons Medical Center, the Buckley Air National Guard Base, and a portion of Lowry Air Force Base. These facilities, alongside the massive Cherry Creek State Recreation Area and Cherry Creek Lake, define the region's mid-century character.
