1972 Map of Long Branch

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Fitzsimons General Hospital and its surrounding U S Military Reservation dominate the southern portion of this landscape, situated just east of the growing Aurora city limits. This 1938 survey, published in the late 1940s, reveals a transitional environment where agricultural irrigation infrastructure like the O'Brien Ditch and the Highline Canal meet expanding rail and military footprints. The Union Pacific and Burlington and Quincy railroads cross the territory, connecting established stops like Sable and Irondale.
