Historic neighborhood in walking distance of Denver’s downtown
Despite Highland’s centuries-old roots in Denver, it began growing in popularity in the early 2000s when a pedestrian bridge connected it with Lower Downtown. “It was always a historic neighborhood — there were always people living there — but it didn’t become the trendy place it is today until that pedestrian bridge got put in over Interstate 25, and then you can watch the price per square foot go up overnight,” says Jenny Usaj, employing broker and owner of Usaj Realty with over 15 years of experience. “Highland is great for people who want the energy of the city, but more of a neighborhood experience where you’re able to go for a walk on the sidewalk with grass and trees.” The neighborhood’s north side, known as the “Potter Highlands Historic District,” provides a glimpse into the neighborhood’s past, with historic preservation efforts protecting many properties’ architectural integrity. Meanwhile, its southern, eastern and western areas blend into local business districts and foodie areas, such as Lower Highlands, or “LoHi.”
The Denver Millennium Bridge will ferry walkers from Highland to LoDo.

Historic Highland homes and modern apartments
Potter Highlands Historic District includes many single-family homes built before the silver crash in 1893, including Foursquare homes, locally known as “Denver Square,” Craftsman bungalows, Mission Revival and Victorian houses. Depending on home size and historic preservation status, these homes range from about $190,000 for a fixer-upper to $3.2 million. “There is another layer of historic preservation that you have to go through if you’re going to do alterations to your home if your home is, in fact, historic,” Usaj says. “You’ll see old stuff built next to new in the Highlands, but if they have that historic plaque because of how old they were, then they can’t take them down.” Modern home prices range from nearly $1 million to $2.5 million.The area also includes townhouses and condos, some repurposed from historic homes and others modern. Townhouse prices range from around $390,000 to $1.8 million, and condos can go from $200,000 to $2.3 million. Apartment buildings also dot the neighborhood, with monthly rents between about $900 and $3,600.

Open space, paved paths and Sloan’s Lake
Viking Park’s almost 6 acres of open space, with paved paths woven throughout, sit in the neighborhood’s southwest area. Highland Park spans 7 acres and includes a trail wide enough for strollers and dogs. The path passes the Woodbury Branch Library, the park’s open space and playground. Hirshorn Park in LoHi has a baseball field and a basketball court. Pedestrian bridges connect Highland to Lower Downtown and Commons Park, a grassy area with a community garden and skatepark.Sloan’s Lake Park totals 177 acres, including its namesake lake, where geese glide along the water while anglers catch and release fish from the shore. The park also includes over 2 miles of loop paths, a paddle craft launch and tennis courts. The Colorado Dragon Boat Festival is held one weekend in late July at the park. Over 50 boating teams compete, racing across Sloan Lake, while on-land entertainment includes over 60 performances, an Asia and Pacific-focused marketplace, Taste of Asia food courts and live art demonstrations.
