2018 Map of Las Vegas SE

About this map

Whitney and the southeastern reaches of the Las Vegas Valley are defined by a dense residential and academic landscape at the edge of the Mojave Desert. This 2018 survey documents the significant educational infrastructure of the region, featuring campuses such as the DeVry Univ Henderson Campus, Everest College, and The Art Institute of Las Vegas. The topography transitions from the suburban sprawl of Paradise Valley and Henderson toward the prominent landforms of Whitney Mesa and the northern slopes of the McCullough Range. Transport corridors like the Union Pacific railroad and major thoroughfares including Wigwam Pkwy and Paseo Verde Pkwy facilitate the area's modern connectivity. Natural features like the Las Vegas Wash and Duck Cr provide a stark contrast to the heavily gridded street network, while local springs like Cold Spring and Mesquite Spring offer a reminder of the valley's arid hydrology.
