Washington ParkSince the late 1970’s the Washington Park neighborhood has become one of Denver’s premier inner city places to call home. With Denver’s largest traditional park at the center, Washington Park East and Washington Park West display home styles from the craftsman bungalow on the east to Victorian on the west. Homes constructed of brick, most of them built from 1900 to 1940, are set back from tree lined streets, with the park easy walking distance from every residence. Those folks relocating to Denver and desiring to live in the city will find wonderful real estate values in this charming neighborhood.

The area first began to develop in the 1860’s with sporadic development around a buffalo wallow that later became Smith Lake in today’s park. By 1886 the population justified the creation of South Denver, the big city’s first suburb. Economic hard times forced the area to annex to Denver in the mid 1890’s and by 1899 construction was started on the park. Traffic moving south to the now established University of Denver (chartered in 1889), and middle class pressure to get away from the “city” helped to fuel serious growth after the turn of the century.

By the 1900’s, row after row of neat bungalows were built from the park east to University Boulevard. By the late 1970’s, these well built homes were perfect for updating. Homes have been and still are being rehabbed, reconditioned, rebuilt, “top-popped” and in a very few cases, scrapped out and new homes built.

Today, Washington Park is one of Denver’s largest and finest parks, with lawn bowling, tennis, the city’s largest flower gardens, a recently built recreation center, summer concerts, volleyball, great cycling and of course, just a lazy nap under a tree.
