Entertainment

 
Devner 16th Street Mall Denver's 16th Street Mall walk. Every city should have something like this. Art, food, shops, how could anyone go wrong?



 





 

Connections

 

The Denver Millennium Bridge sits at the edge of the 16th Street Mall area. It's visually very inviting, as you are lured to see what it is and where it goes when you reach the end of 16th Street. Well it's a cool and very white:-) cable-stay bridge over train tracks. From near the train station it drops you off in the Highland neighborhood, next to the Commons Park along the Platte River. What a great place to explore! Most visitors to Denver probably miss this area.

Denver Urban Waterways Trails

What a cool downtown system of hiking and biking trails.

Arts

Denver Performing Arts Comples - DPAC
Denver's Performing Arts Complex (DPAC) really rocks. Wow, a very inviting space to hang out. Pseudo open air in the open space too, which is way cool. Not too many cities could pull this type of open air venue off due to weather concerns .

 








Trains

Denver Union Station   Union Pacific through fence
Denver is very much a railroading kind of town. Too bad the snow train stopped running up the mountains. With all the "green" talk these days, perhaps passenger rail service may return to it's glory over at Union Station.



 




 


Fancy Cars

 
Denver Larimer Square Historic District

Larimer Square Historic District

What a great way to delineate a happening District, draping strands of lights across the road. Why don't more cities do this? During the holidays is saves on decoration installation costs:-).
