Live in eclectic Cheeseman Park

Cheesman Park -- both the neighborhood and the sprawling park it surrounds -- attracts a diverse blend of residents, runners, dog-walkers, gay-friendly folks, apartment renters and mansion dwellers. Bounded by Josephine, Colfax, 8th Avenue and Corona, this neighborhood offers high-rise living with breathtaking views. Mature trees shade Cheesman Park's historic homes and condominiums, adding a sense of timelessness to the picturesque and popular area. The park once served as the city's cemetery, and some residents claim to share the neighborhood with benevolent ghosts. Local coffeehouses, bars, ice cream shops, boutiques and restaurants cater to a broad range of tastes. Facilities at the Denver Botanic Gardens offer year-round attractions including holiday lights and summer concerts.
