Old Denver
The eclectic houses and vintage spots in Baker only contribute to its reputation as an “Old Denver” neighborhood. “Baker is reasonable because it’s less expensive and has so much culture,” says Will Torrence, longtime local and employee at the Denver Public Library. “Most people know about all the cool spots on South Broadway. It’s more gritty than other parts of the city, and that’s because it’s ‘Old Denver.’ That’s a big part of the area’s appeal.”
Broadway is well known as one of Denver's best vintage hot spots - you can pick up great clothes and furniture, along with some gifts, at Decade.
Historians has a terrific rooftop bar that provides mountain views.

Historic homes and luxury condominiums
Baker's inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places ensures its architectural character will remain as Denver continues to evolve.

Craftsman bungalows and Denver Squares are also common, priced between $500,000 and $700,000. Luxury developments — like Watermark condominiums — are available as well, ranging in price from $300,000 to $500,000.

Charcuterie and nightcaps on Broadway
Some of Denver’s most popular gathering places occupy former industrial buildings along Broadway. “There’s a ton of restaurants along South Broadway,” Torrence says. “Bars that have been around forever, live music. And you’re really close to downtown.” Postino prepares charcuterie boards and café snacks out of a renovated creamery. A few blocks down, Punch Bowl Social is part restaurant, part hangout — complete with games, karaoke and private spaces for large groups. The Blue Bonnet, named after the Texas State flower, has been a longtime staple, originally opening during the Prohibition era. Its most recent iteration serves traditional Mexican fare. Nightcaps at Hi-Dive might feature local musicians and touring acts, while shops like Fancy Tiger Crafts Co-op and the Wizard's Chest costume shop add further variety to Broadway's diverse eateries. Safeway and Sam's Club are also nearby to cover the basics.

Revitalized parks off I-25
Dailey Park is a pocket green space, though it barely covers a city block for outdoor recreation. Thankfully, Baker’s proximity to the South Valley Highway, also known as Interstate 25, keeps the city's more substantial green spaces within reach. Johnson Habitat Park, for example, boasts an ornate play space for children and Vanderbilt Lake for fishing opportunities. Originally a landfill, the park’s focus on environmental education includes an outdoor classroom, rock sculptures, and sand areas, as well as the South Platte River Trail for walking and biking. Additionally, the Denver Country Club is just off E 1st Avenue, the oldest country club west of the Mississippi.

Reaching Denver’s city center
Baker residents need only take I-25 a few miles north to reach Denver’s city center, intersecting the 6th Avenue Freeway along the way. Folks can take the freeway just over 7 miles west to hit Lakewood or take I-70 15 miles east to Aurora. Denver’s RTD public transportation system provides bus stops along E Speer Boulevard, as well as along E 6th Street. Meanwhile, the Denver International Airport is about 28 miles northeast via I-70 and Peña Boulevard, while Denver Health Hospital Authority is only a mile in the same direction.
Baker is a pocket of charming historic homes just a stone's through from downtown and Broadway.
Part of Baker neighborhood's appeal is its proximity to downtown Denver.

I grew up in Baker and it was an immigrant and working class neighborhood. It has been entirely gentrified beyond recognition at this point and is not affordable, has hardly any affordable food nearby and feels like walking through an alternate dimension when I go back to visit.

A hip neighborhood, close to South Broadway establishments: restaurants, bars, salons, grocery stores, game shops, improv comedy theater, vintage stores, specialty shops. It's not the cleanest part of Denver, but it has a lot of character.
