Pueblo West is a covenant-controlled
planned housing development. The arid, rising land
northwest of Pueblo proper offers views of Pikes
Peak to the north and the Spanish Peaks to the
south. This growing community, situated off U.S. 50,
offers a surprising amount of conveniences for
visitors. Pueblo West is bisected by east-west U.S.
highway 50- and its eastern border is touched by
north-south Interstate Highway 25, which is the
major route to Colorado Springs and Denver. The hub
of the community is located at McCullouch and Joe
Martinez Boulevards, where a civic center area
houses a few restaurants. In addition, there are
about a dozen lodging facilities ranging from hotels
to B&Bs in the greater Pueblo area. Downtown Pueblo,
just eight miles east, offers a diverse mix of
eateries, a restored historic district, a newly
completed Riverwalk area, and shopping districts.
With annexations, Pueblo West contains about 26,000
acres of contiguous lands. The community is also
situated just north of the Pueblo State Park, which
is a part of the Fryingpan-Arkansas Water Project.
The dam was constructed in 1975 by the United States
Bureau of Reclamation. The lake is used for boating,
swimming, sailing, and fishing. Maintained campsites
are also available, in addition to miles of hiking
and biking trails, including a local greenway that
runs all the way to downtown Pueblo. Pueblo West
also has a wide variety of outdoor activities.
Approximately, 4600 acres have been reserved for
neighborhood parks, playgrounds, and an open
greenbelt area. A heated swimming pool, ball fields,
shuffleboard courts, horseshoe pits, a paved
basketball court, a sand volleyball court,
playground, lighted tennis courts, picnic pavilion
with stage, and barbeque facilities. |
