2010 Map of Lafayette

About this map

Lafayette and Broomfield stand as the primary urban centers in this 2010 topographic survey of the Front Range corridor. The landscape is a dense network of suburban residential developments such as Broomfield Heights, Maple Grove, and Northmoor, intertwined with significant water management infrastructure including the Community Ditch and Brunner Reservoir. A notable historical layer is revealed through the numerous named mines scattered across the northern portion of the quadrangle, including the Centennial Mine, Vulcan Mine, and Regal Mine, signaling the area's rich carbon extraction heritage. Modern transportation and recreation define the western half of the map, anchored by the Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport and several prominent golf courses. The eastern edge transition into Northglenn and Thornton showcases a highly engineered landscape of terminal reservoirs and canals designed to support rapid metropolitan growth.
