Live in historic Whittier

Named after John Greenleaf Whittier, American poet and abolitionist, Denver's Whittier neighborhood features beautiful, historic homes in Victorian, Queen Anne and Denver Square styles. Bounded by Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd., 23rd Avenue, York Street and Downing Street, Whittier's historic charm and convenient location just northeast of downtown make it a popular neighborhood with hardworking families and singles. Amenities include a new community center at 29th and Downing, across from the light rail station. Attractions such as City Park, City Park Golf Course and the Denver Zoo are located just east of Whittier. Local landmarks include St. Ignatius Loyola Church on the corner of 23rd and York Street.
