2010 Map of Southeast Pueblo

About this map

The southeastern reaches of Pueblo reveal a complex intersection of industrial water management and residential expansion in this 2010 study. The landscape is defined by the significant irrigation and industrial infrastructure of the Bessemer Ditch, which snakes across the terrain to support the region's historical steel-making legacy, evidenced by the North Mills Clarifying Pond and associated dams. Small, distinct communities like Salt Creek, Blende, and Lombard Village are clustered north of the Saint Charles River, contrasting with the open arroyos and drainage basins to the south. Genealogists and local historians can find precise locations for the expansive Roselawn Cemetery and trace the paths of seasonal waterways such as Thomkins Arroyo and Edson Arroyo as they flow toward the main river valley.
