Washington Park
June 20th, 2006 by JayRecently I came across the Denver Government website and it had a great overview of various Denver neighborhoods. Washington Park real estate is booming. Here’s their overview of the Washington Park neighborhood also called Wash Park:
Built in 1899, the 162-acre Washington Park, with Smith and Grasmere lakes each ending the long grassy meadow, is a local recreational haven. The three-story red brick 1926 South High School, complete with griffins perched on its roof, overlooks Washington Park from the southeast corner. From I-25 to Cherry Creek and from University Boulevard to Downing Street, the neighborhood is rich with entertainment, like the cluster of small shops and restaurants on South Gaylord and South Pearl Streets.
