1938 Map of Long Branch

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Fitzsimons General Hospital and its extensive U S Military Reservation dominate the southern portion of this landscape, reflecting the military's significant footprint in Adams County during the late 1930s. The area exhibits a transition from early industrial and agricultural activity, evidenced by the Irondale settlement and the complex network of irrigation ditches like the O'Brien Ditch and the Highline Canal. Water management is central to this prairie environment, with sites such as the Blackman Lake Site and several small reservoirs including Ladora Lake and Derby Lake providing essential resources for the region.
