Noteworthy Mention of Jefferson Park
Jefferson Park neighborhood is an area in northwest Denver that is witnessing major urban renewal and is conveniently located near the downtown business district. Its boundaries are Speer Blvd., Federal Blvd., Colfax Ave. and the South Platte River.
History and Location of Jefferson Park
Elevated above the downtown area, Jefferson Park neighborhood offers great views of Denver and quiet streets despite its proximity to the Highlands area, Mile High Stadium and Federal Blvd. The housing options in this area range from statuesque 19th-century brick homes to newly built condominiums.
Jefferson Park neighborhood, like many inner-city neighborhoods, experienced a mass exodus of people to the suburbs in the 1960s. The departure led to urban decay and increased crime for decades. It wasn’t until the mid-1990s when people, seeking affordable housing and reasonable commutes, began returning to the area. The Jefferson Park United Neighborhood Association was formed in 2000 when a development was proposed that would have eliminated a number of 19th-century homes and turned the historic park into an amphitheater. The group ended up having a profound impact and the plans were eventually scrapped.
The neighborhood is now in the midst of a profound transition as are many of the Denver neighborhoods close to downtown. You’ll find some affordable homes that are ripe for remodeling or flipping, as well as many higher-priced new construction homes. Jefferson Park’s close proximity to the northwest Denver amenities and LoDo make it a desirable choice among young people.
