About this map

Pueblo anchors this landscape at the confluence of the Arkansas River and Fountain Creek, where urban expansion meets the high plains. The city’s northern and eastern reaches are defined by significant industrial and institutional infrastructure, including the campus of Colorado State University-Pueblo and the Pueblo Memorial Airport. Water management is central to the area's development, evidenced by the Greenville Ditch, Booth Canal, and the South Colorado Power Company Reservoir.

Tracing the northern corridor along the interstate reveals smaller settlements like Eden and Gnat Hollow, while the eastern plains are broken by the prominent Baculite Mesa. Local history is marked by sites such as the Masonic Cemetery and Jacob Fowlers Lookout, while the southern end of the sheet shows the transition from the city grid to the industrial lands near the North Mills Clarifying Pond and Smelter Hill.
