About this map

Firestone and Frederick anchor the northern landscape of this region, which is defined by an intricate network of irrigation ditches and reservoirs essential to the plains north of Denver. The map documents a corridor of suburban and industrial transition, where older settlements like Evanston and Puritan sit alongside modern developments in Dacono and northern Thornton. The complex water management system is visible through features like the Coal Ridge Ditch, Stanley Ditch, and Bull Canal, which feed numerous storage bodies including the North Star Reservoir and Thompson Reservoir.

Land use patterns are further illustrated by the Wings N-Things Airpark & Museum and the expansion of Broomfield across the Weld County line. This 2019 survey captures the density of the local road network, from major arteries like Colorado Blvd to the rural grids of Co Rd 18 and Co Rd 8, tracing the ongoing transformation of traditional agricultural lands into a continuous residential and commercial fabric.
