About this map

Chatfield Lake dominates the southern landscape of this Colorado corridor, where the South Platte River and an intricate network of irrigation ditches historically defined the valley's development. This modern survey illustrates the transition from the concentrated urban core of Littleton and Englewood toward the residential expanses of Columbine and Ken Caryl. Educational and civic anchors such as Arapahoe Community College, Denver Seminary, and the Arapahoe County Courthouse stand as central landmarks near the river.

Water management remains the defining characteristic of the terrain, from the Highline Canal and City Ditch to the numerous reservoirs like Marston Lake and McLellan Reservoir. For genealogists, the map preserves the location of the Littleton Cem and the Carmel of the Holy Spirit Convent Cem. The southern reach includes smaller settlements like Blakeland and Acequia, marking the interface between suburban growth and the recreational grounds of Chatfield State Park.
