Description

Within the Rocky Mountain West, Denver is thought of as the large city. Yet its urban core consists of a large number of neighborhoods developed Within the late 19th century that act lately as virtual small towns. South-central Denver’s Washington Park is a type of “small towns,” and its name refers both to a 166-acre historic park and to the encompassing blend of residential and commercial neighborhoods. Cited as a model for new urbanism, this area serves as a long lasting example of the City Beautiful movement. Touted Within the late 19th century for its “rapid transit,” clean air, and pure water, the world once referred to as Broadway Terrace, Myrtle Hill, and the Miracle Mile of South Denver continues to serve as a recreational mecca for Denverites. Over a span of 100 years, it has transformed from prairie to potato fields to “posh.”
