Stapleton History
Stapleton is best known for its 65 years of aviation activity. Prior to 1929, the area was primarily used by ranchers and farmers for livestock grazing and dairy cattle raising operations. In 1929, the original Denver Municipal Airport was constructed on approximately 345 acres east of 32nd (now Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard) and Syracuse Streets. Mobilization during World War II resulted in increased activity and expansion of the airport south of Sand Creek. With the arrival of the jet age, Stapleton International Airport expanded significantly, adding property to the north, west, and ultimately totaling 4,700 acres.
