About this map

Fort Collins is defined by an intricate network of irrigation ditches and canals that have historically supported this Larimer County landscape, including the Lake Canal, Larimer and Weld Canal, and the Josh Ames Ditch. The 2019 landscape shows the urban center at Colorado State University and the Larimer County Justice Center surrounded by several historically distinct areas such as Buckingham and Andersonville.

Water management is central to the area's development, evidenced by the many reservoirs and laterals like Terry Lake, Long Pond Reservoir, and the Sherwood Lateral branching off the Cache la Poudre River. Genealogists will find several notable burial sites including Grandview Cem, Roselawn Cem, and Harmony Cem. Educational institutions like the Front Range Community College Fort Collins Campus and the University of Phoenix Fort Collins Learning Center mark the modern academic footprint of this growing Colorado community.
