Glendale packs city energy, apartments and retail into a few blocks
About 6 miles south of the Denver cityscape, Glendale’s streets are alive with activity. “Glendale is a small city — just about 2 square miles — completely surrounded by Denver. The rest of the city is made up mostly of multifamily residential buildings and commercial spaces,” says Brooke Worthington, the community development administrator for the City of Glendale. “Despite being small, it offers tons of amenities — from big-name stores and restaurants to great public parks and community events. If you’re looking for a place that’s walkable, active and full of energy, Glendale is a great place to consider.”
Glendale offers a mix of apartments and condos near city amenities.
Modern multifamily residences in Glendale provide convenient urban living.

Roads to Lower Downtown, public transit and city services
Cherry Creek South Drive connects Glendale to East Speer Boulevard, a road that travels through Lower Downtown. Union Station, a light rail and Amtrak stop, and Coors Field, where the Colorado Rockies play, are both located downtown. Cherry Street and Colorado Boulevard run north and south. These roads and Mississippi Avenue all have Regional Transportation District (RTD) bus stops. Glendale’s public works department prepares its snow removal fleet in September to get ready for winter. The HCA Health One Rose hospital is approximately a 2-mile drive, and the Denver International Airport is nearly 20 miles away.
From parks on the Cherry Creek Regional Trail to Infinity Park
The nearly 45-mile Cherry Creek Regional Trail runs from Lower Downtown through the area and ends near Franktown. Many miles of the path are bike-friendly, and some are horse-friendly. Four Mile Historic Park, a green space with an 1800s cabin and museum, is on the trail. Creek Side Park is also on the trail route and includes two sand volleyball courts. At Playa del Carmen Park, dogs can run in a fenced area overlooking open space. Glendale Park received pickleball courts and a basketball court in 2023, complementing the park’s playground and natural open space.
Infinity Park is home to a 4,000-seat rugby facility and the Glendale Sports Center, which features indoor fitness facilities and classrooms. Members pay a monthly fee to access the center’s amenities. “Infinity Park is the main hub — its large open field is used for a variety of sports, and the loop trail around it is a popular spot for runners, walkers and dog owners. The professional rugby stadium also serves local high school teams and a youth rugby league throughout the year,” Worthington says. The Rugby Town 7s tournament held in the park each August draws international players and attracts large crowds, according to Worthington.
Infinity Park is a central Glendale destination for sports and outdoor activities.
Boys play football on the open fields at Glendale’s Infinity Park.

Cherry Creek Schools serving Glendale and state-ranked sports teams
Glendale is in the Cherry Creek School District’s attendance boundary. The district assigns students to a school based on their residence location, and it offers in-district and out-of-district students the option to choose a school. Holly Ridge Primary, a kindergarten through second-grade school, and Holly Hills Elementary, serving grades 3 through 5, comprise The Hollys. The nickname, “The Hollys,” symbolizes how the two schools function as one. The Hollys earn a B grade from Niche. West Middle School receives an A, and Cherry Creek High School scores an A-plus. Several of the high school’s athletic programs are state-ranked, including the golf and boys lacrosse teams.
Holly Ridge Primary serves Glendale families with early education programs.
Holly Hills Elementary provides Glendale students with strong academic foundations.
West Middle School offers quality education for Glendale’s growing community.
Cherry Creek High School near Glendale earns an A+ rating and hosts state-ranked teams.
