Park Hill

Founded in 1882, Denver's quaint, sprawling Park Hill neighborhood is located just three miles from downtown. Originally developed as an Arabian horse track, and later a military barracks during the Spanish-American War, today, Park Hill is one of the city's most vibrant, stylistic, and historically diverse neighborhoods. Bordered by City Park to the west at Josephine, Quebec to the east, from Colfax to as far north as 52nd Avenue, Park Hill offers an ideal residential community.
