The Washington Park neighborhood is bounded by University Blvd., Downing St. Cherry Creek and I-25.

“I grew up in L.A. and I was trying to describe Wash Park to someone out there, so I said, it’s like a beach in the middle of a city. A beach community is small and tight, and there’s always lots of activity all over the place, all of the time. The park is the big draw here and there’s so much activity going on all the time. It’s an amenity that’s really a plus for the neighborhood, just like a beach would be.” 

-Janet Lammens, Wash Park neighbor

“I don’t think you can get any more centrally located than Cap Hill. I park my car on Friday and I very rarely turn it on before Monday. You’ve got the whole package here, there are singles and families; there are so many places you can walk to and there are so many events going on all the time.” -Tim Vargo, Cap Hill neighbor
