Golden Triangle/Capitol Hill
The Golden Triangle neighborhood is home to a number of Denver's cultural institutions, including the Art Museum, Central Library and the Colorado History Museum. The neighborhood was also once filled with victorian-era homes. However, during the 1960's and 1970's, many of the blocks were razed to make room for surface parking lots. The neighborhood is currently undergoing a buildings boom, with the surface lots now being replaced by mid- and high-rise condominium and loft buildings. The current population of the neighborhood is approximately 1,000. Over 600 new units are under construction or proposed in the area. Capitol Hill is Denver's most diverse neighborhood, with an eclectic mix of victorian homes and mid-rise apartments and condos. Currently, there is little new development activity in the neighborhood. The current population is approximately 14,000. (Click on the thumbnails for larger pics)
