A rapidly transforming riverfront community
Jefferson Park is a place to watch as homebuyers and visitors rediscover one of the Mile High City’s oldest neighborhoods. After decades of declining populations and increased commercialization, condominiums and contemporary townhouses are revitalizing the neighborhood's housing market. The result is a steady mix of turn-of-the-century houses and new developments. The area's namesake park sits at the center of the community, and Interstate 25 forms a barrier between the residential and recreational parts of this urban strip. By crossing over, folks can easily access some of Denver’s most famous attractions, including the booming Empower Field and Downtown Aquarium.
Jefferson Park is full of fun and entertainment for all age groups.
Jefferson Park is a tight knit commuity where local dog owners meet at the park daily.
