Jefferson Park
Classic Victorians meet new Jefferson Park condos
Cranes swivel overhead as upcoming apartments, condos and office complexes are built from the ground up. Modern townhouses with clean lines, large windows and off-street parking list from $675,000 to $850,000, while sleek condos two blocks from Empower Field go for $400,000 to $585,000. These often sit next to neighborhoods that have been around for decades or longer, making for a stark contrast connected by clean sidewalks. Entire streets of renovated Victorian cottages in storybook hues and Mission Revival duplexes hearken back to a much earlier Denver. Most are priced between $655,000 and $830,000 and were built in the early 1900s.Dining and shopping this side of South Platte
Locals stroll to the breweries and eateries that line Federal Boulevard or grab groceries at the Safeway on the north corner. The tavern-style Federal Bar and Grill offers 20 draft beer lines, while dinner guests at Adams Mystery Playhouse solve a murder mystery while choosing from the buffet. Residents can head north to Highland for even more options for a bite to eat. Being just across the South Platte River from the heart of Denver means they’re also close to larger shopping centers like 16th Street Mall.Schools near Jefferson Park

Situated on a bluff overlooking the surrounding community, Jefferson Park provides a grassy space to escape the urban atmosphere and take the dogs for a walk. Residents bring their lawn chairs on the Fourth of July to watch fireworks over the city. They can cross I-25 to reach Gates Crescent Park, where local kids play on the playground and bikers and picnickers enjoy views of Elitch Gardens. Kids also love the hands-on exhibits at the Children's Museum of Denver at Marsico Campus. Their outdoor Adventure Forest offers seasonal activities in the snow and on hot summer days.A trip to Downtown Aquarium or Empower Field
The underwater life at Downtown Aquarium entrances visitors year-round – from a 50,000-gallon centerpiece display to whimsical exhibit shows featuring Mystic Mermaids®. And it's hard not to be a Broncos fan when living so close to Empower Field at Mile High. In addition to football games, guests can visit the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame and attend concerts from major headliners there throughout the year.Taking I-25 and getting around Denver
I-25 is the main thoroughfare for Jefferson Park residents looking to get in and out of Denver. They head north on the interstate before exiting onto Interstate 76 to reach Denver International Airport in roughly 30 miles. By crossing I-25, locals reach LoDo, Metropolitan State University of Denver and Saint Joseph Hospital. Save for I-25, the Jefferson Park area is walkable and bikeable. The Light Rail C-Line sits next to Empower Field, and folks can even take the scenic Denver Trolley from the aquarium station.A noisy day-to-day
Most Jefferson Park residents can certainly hear cheers from excited fans at Empower Field each time there's an event. Road noise from I-25 and ongoing construction add to the soundscape of the neighborhood.
