Built in 1886, the Colorado State Capitol is the epicenter of Denver’s Cap Hill neighborhood. In its heyday, Denver’s wealthy and elite took pride in calling this hood’s coveted streets home, erecting elaborate Victorian-style mansions. But conversions and replacements from the roaring 20s onward, would change Cap Hill’s architecture to an eclectic variety of homes that reflected the 20th century’s many economic shifts and popular residential styles. In the 1980s, continuing redevelopments incited city residents to establish organizations like Historic Denver to preserve the neighborhood’s remaining significant architecture. Dense, eclectic, and historic, you’ll find a mix of single-family homes, apartments, and massive mansions in Cap Hill, with plenty of dining, shopping, art, and entertainment to fill your weekends.
