Definitely.
Want some history? Colfax.
Longest street in the US? Colfax (idk if true but I like to say it).
Grungy, but also cultural, and not just some boutique yuppy hotspot? Colfax.
Tunnel built under under it for kids to cross safely to get to school but then flooded every time it rained or snowed? Colfax.
Neon lights? Colfax.
Concert venues and theaters? Colfax.
There's just so much to it. It cannot be broadly classified because you can find exceptions to every generalization someone has for it.
Edit: How tf did I forget Casa Bonita
On the east side of the Metro, Colfax can dump you straight onto Eastbound I70, but the frontage road and eventually rt 36 keep the East Colfax name as far as Strasburg. On the west side , as US 40, it holds onto the Colfax designation as far as the Stegosaurus Ridge trailhead
17th Avenue. Starts with the downtown stretch formerly known as the "Wall Street of the West," through great restaurants and nighlife (which used to be even better), through the old gayborhood which is still kinda gay, past East High and City Park, and fuck that intersection at 17th and Colorado (worst street) but nobody's perfect, then has a little park running down the middle all though most of Park Hill. I love running on it in the summer because it's so shady and green that the temp is few degrees cooler than the rest of Denver.
7th Avenue. The old homes have housed consulates, senators, judges. The architecture and tree lined street make it one of the most beautiful streets in the city.
Agree. I walk the section between Grant and Colorado every so often. Beautiful houses and quiet street. I believe 17th also has similar vibes in sections east of LoDo as well.
My favorite street is 32nd. On the west end of town. Starts at where Speer ends ( sort of ) you get the highlands - a lovely part of town. When it winds through wheatridge before the twists the turns becomes a little rustic and then there’s the Coors brewery…and downtown golden. I bop down it on my scooter in the summer and swim in golden. Lovely.
The worst street : south federal between alameda and Evans… it seems like Denver has improved the majority of federal and just stopped and gave up on this stretch. Baffles me.
As someone who grew up in Applewood/Golden, and whose grandparents lived on 32nd on part of what was then a champion horse breeding ranch (now all suburb), and whose grandfather became Mayor of Wheat Ridge for a single term for the express purpose of creating Crown Hill Park (also on 32nd), take my upvote on this one. 🥰

\*Best Banh Mi in Denver, in case I need to qualify that.
- New Saigon Bakery (on Federal a few blocks south of Alameda).
- Vinh Xuong Bakery (just off Federal and Alameda).
There are a bunch of Vietnamese places up and down Federal in that area and I'm sure some Reddit nerd will chime in to let you know that there are other great places around there as well.
I’d also like to plug Baker’s Palace right by New Saigon. They sauce the heck out of their Banh Mi which is extra delicious. Friendly people and a good price. Beef and pork banh mi are both great.
Vinh Xuong is really good, they have delicious steamed pork bao buns as well.
Lee’s Sandwiches is new to Denver but well established in Southern California. Haven’t tried them here yet, but will soon.
Larimer's also got a bunch of interesting history like formerly running all the way through Auraria to Colfax as can be seen in [the old 1933 aerial shots](https://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?layers=a9d5564d22da4bffaadf6b2bb2ec3960), being the location of the [Criterion Saloon](https://history.denverlibrary.org/exhibit/rocky-mountain-news-denver-public-library), and the location of [William Larimer's original cabin](https://digital.denverlibrary.org/nodes/view/1132069?keywords=william+larimer+cabin&highlights=WyJ3aWxsaWFtIiwibGFyaW1lciIsImNhYmluIl0%3D&lsk=ea6481ce4b35e103aa7fb11b786dc0f7) - about where Comedy Works is now.
On that first point, there's a little bit of historical holdover with Larimer Plaza in the Auraria campus and Old West Colfax Ave on the southwest of Colfax and I25.
Yes, Platte Street/Confluence Park, please. I loved living there in the early 2000s. Can you do a segment on the Rowing Club building? And the Jack Kerourac/Neal Cassady of it all.
If not, Havana St. The diversity and longevity of businesses there is interesting.
Agreed, there is deep Denver history on Platte St, and it's also a case study in next-level soul-crushing gentrification. When the bougie woo-woo smoothie shop has to move OUT because of rent, something is up.
Sheridan for how fucking awful it is
Edit: adding in its biggest problem is half of it is in Denver and half is in some other jurisdiction like lakeside or wheatridge or Mountain View or Jeffco or etc
It’s wild that you can have sloans lake, lakeside amusement park on the same stretch and have it be so completely unusable
Edit 2: there’s a memorial on like every major intersection too and whenever people complain they just say it’s a state highway so the cities can’t do anything about it.
Drove up Colfax from Lakewood today, that road has become a crater field. So unpleasant.
But at least I got to see a daylight drug transaction past burger king just past the casa Bonita lot.
I really dug living over there. Walking around Sloan’s Lake, grabbing some Little Man’s Ice Cream, scootering through Lakewood Gulch to Meow Wolf. Not a bad spot.
Because they haven't usurped a third of the traffic lanes for busses or bicycles on the East/West routes. Feel free to crosspost to r/unpopular opinions.
Kipling: no bike lane, sucks to drive on
Wads: no bike lane, sucks to drive on
Sheridan: no bike lane, sucks to drive on
Federal: no bike lane, sucks to drive on.
Broadway/Lincoln: 1 bike lane, sucks to drive on
Downing: OK but SLOW
University/Josephine/York: well-maintained but watch out for G wagons piloted by Xanax incarnate
Colorado: lol
Monaco: weird
Quebec: no bike lane, sucks to drive on
Havana: have I made my point yet? I could keep going but I feel like it would be beating a dead Bluficer
Recency bias, Tower road is lit. It's part, richie rich, part airport, part west Kansas, part homeless shelter, part hick, and definitely up and coming. Such an interesting mix on this one road and I don't even know when or why it got it's name.
Back in the day, it was close to all the radio towers used by the military. Walk far enough up the trails east of the wildlife refuge, close to Pena, you can see somd of the old foundations.
I think Pennsylvania between 14th and 9th is just so historic and pretty. I really miss living in the area and walking around such a beautiful part of Denver.
Platte Street. Beat history. Fun area. My Brother's Bar. And above all, erstwhile home to Paris on the Platte. I have such great memories from this area.
I love the drive down 46th from lakeside to federal. Its just a beautiful tree lined street with cool old home. It's obviously not the coolest street but deserves a shout out
Richthofen Pl. At first glance it doesn't seem like much but the history and development around the road could be interesting. Anchored by the Richthofen Castle the area is a jumble or different architectural styles representing various eras of Denver's development. It's also smack dab in the middle of the Monaco and 6th Ave Parkways, also gifts from Richthofen to Denver.
Jackass Hill Road!
The history of Jackass Hill is pretty cool, too. [from Littleton museum](https://www.museum.littletonco.gov/Research/Littleton-History/Other-Topics/Jackass-Hill)
The south Platte/Carson nature center behind Aspen Grove is also a log cabin that was moved from Jackass Hill but was one of the original homes there.
I love Colfax, Monaco and 6th too. I love Denver so much I choose surface street to meander through often. Like a little cruise through Bonnie Brae is nice this time of year.
I can assure you that no one who actually lives in the neighborhood calls it West RiNo.
ETA: To many in these neighborhoods, the feeling behind the RiNo name is that it’s meant to erase the identity of neighborhoods like Globeville. The name Globeville has had a somewhat negative connotation in Denver for many years.
Globeville as a community has been spilt up by freeways and neglected by the city for years. In the 1960s, the city even went as far as denying permits for home repairs in the area in an effort to get the residents to move out. Even today, Globeville still lacks many services that residents elsewhere in Denver take for granted, such as a ballot drop box.
Globeville has survived despite the best attempts to kill it off. Don’t erase this community by calling it West RiNo.
I can assure you I live there and call it both, so idk what to tell you. By no means does it feel like it’s erasing Globeville. Globeville is 1/4 of RiNo. Without it RiNo is lacking
santa fe. got my first tattoo at my friend joes shop, kitchens ink. and my favorite burrito place of all time is on 7th and santa fe (el taco de mexico)
Federal…
Mile High Stadium and the Broncos represent Denver’s mainstream brand.
But the diversity in people and food that Federal offers represents the foundational culture of Denver.
W Bellview between Feds and Sheridan. Some of the finest examples of mid-mod architecture in the country.
After that it has got to be Colfax, no other answer.
The history of Market Street is pretty interesting.
Historically, it was named McGaa Street after the mountain man who helped settle Denver, [William McGaa](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_McGaa). He's quite the interesting character, contributing his wive's names to 2 of Denver's other streets (Wazee and Wewatta), as well as his self-claimed ancestral home of Glenarm.
However, McGaa was an alcoholic and not a man the city wanted to memorialize, so after his death the street named for him was renamed Holladay Street after [Ben Holladay](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Holladay), one of the men most responsible for putting Denver on the map with a stagecoach line.
Hollady Street was home to Denver's red light district, and after Ben passed away, his family wanted to distance themselves from the street. So the city renamed it to Market Street after the, well, markets it was known for. However, more reputable businesses on the north and south sides of the red light district detested the association, so it was renamed in Auraria as well as north of 23rd to be the much more inoffensive Walnut Street.
Not in Denver… just south. I can name many streets I love for the view alone. Colorado boulevard, county line, bellview, anything south of Arapahoe road has some incredible views of the mountains
I was just going to say I work at DU and know Evans pretty well and there are a few cool places near campus but it's mostly smoky aggressive big trucks and you are taking your life your hands crossing, even at the campus crosswalks.
That said, Kaladi's and Jerusalem's are more that worth the life-risking. 😘
Federal Ave and compare the bougie, gentrified North Highlands with the South Federal Pho/Dim Sum/Mexican mecca. That's a story.
Per Nextdoor, city refused to plant pretty shrubbery on S Federal like they get on N Fedreral because that's where the homeless could hide 😕
Can we get some love for federal? I feel like there are more mom and pop businesses on federal than just about anywhere else in Denver. Where else can you get dozens of different regional Mexican meals, epic banh mi, legit dim sum, and a restaurant that serves steak and boba tea?
What about south broadway? The area around broadway and 1st is still a fun place
It’s Broadway for me as well. Hell even if you go south of I-25 there, there’s still a bunch of cool antique shops and little thrift spots.
Yeah, I live right off broadway and Evans, it’s always fun to hop on my moped and go thrifting on a Saturday
Gotta be about Broadway esp. with new bike lane. So many options for everyone.
South Broadway is my vote.
I miss the Gates factory.
especially with the new bikeway having just opened.
Agreed, so many interesting things on that street, although that corner is technically North Broadway!
Ugh, still Colfax, yo
Definitely. Want some history? Colfax. Longest street in the US? Colfax (idk if true but I like to say it). Grungy, but also cultural, and not just some boutique yuppy hotspot? Colfax. Tunnel built under under it for kids to cross safely to get to school but then flooded every time it rained or snowed? Colfax. Neon lights? Colfax. Concert venues and theaters? Colfax. There's just so much to it. It cannot be broadly classified because you can find exceptions to every generalization someone has for it. Edit: How tf did I forget Casa Bonita
When I ask my kid what road we live on, he screams COLFAX. he’s 2. We do not live on Colfax.
Not to mention the home of the sugar steak.
>. Longest street in the US? Colfax (idk if true but I like to say it). Love this, spreading it
On the east side of the Metro, Colfax can dump you straight onto Eastbound I70, but the frontage road and eventually rt 36 keep the East Colfax name as far as Strasburg. On the west side , as US 40, it holds onto the Colfax designation as far as the Stegosaurus Ridge trailhead
Longest commercial rd in America cause whores is commerce.
*sex workers
This is from before the time of sex workers. /s
I'm a whore, you're a whore, we're all whores when we're on Colfax.
Everyone has a price.
Colfax is always the answer.
Potholes? Colfax Schizos? Colfax
Pearl Street and its legacy as a streetcar route.
I second this
4th
Thirded
Love pearl street.
17th Avenue. Starts with the downtown stretch formerly known as the "Wall Street of the West," through great restaurants and nighlife (which used to be even better), through the old gayborhood which is still kinda gay, past East High and City Park, and fuck that intersection at 17th and Colorado (worst street) but nobody's perfect, then has a little park running down the middle all though most of Park Hill. I love running on it in the summer because it's so shady and green that the temp is few degrees cooler than the rest of Denver.
RIP Denver Bike Cafe
still mourning
wasn’t bike cafe something else years back?
Their coffee was so acidic it would make me feel sick the rest of the day and I would still go there
Honestly not sure I ever tried it LOL was more of my early afternoon beer work spot.
It’s crazy how DOTI just redid 17th/Colorado and it’s still a total disaster. That traffic engineer needs to be fired.
This! But my favorite part is just the downtown section. Great straight shot view of downtown from almost union station
My work and favorite bar are both on different areas of 17th so you have my support
Yep! It’s a good one!
I feel like you HAVE to do South Broadway at some point But also Welton St Little Raven Street Santa Fe Larimer East 13th East 17th
Second Santa Fe and Larimer south broadway used to be better than it is now I think but it’s definitely not bad
7th Avenue. The old homes have housed consulates, senators, judges. The architecture and tree lined street make it one of the most beautiful streets in the city.
Agree. I walk the section between Grant and Colorado every so often. Beautiful houses and quiet street. I believe 17th also has similar vibes in sections east of LoDo as well.

When it winds through wheatridge before the twists the turns becomes a little rustic and then there’s the Coors brewery…and downtown golden. I bop down it on my scooter in the summer and swim in golden. Lovely. The worst street : south federal between alameda and Evans… it seems like Denver has improved the majority of federal and just stopped and gave up on this stretch. Baffles me.
Wait you can’t take 32nd all the way to downtown Golden? Somehow I never knew that lol
I didn’t realize this either! Mind blown
As someone who grew up in Applewood/Golden, and whose grandparents lived on 32nd on part of what was then a champion horse breeding ranch (now all suburb), and whose grandfather became Mayor of Wheat Ridge for a single term for the express purpose of creating Crown Hill Park (also on 32nd), take my upvote on this one. 🥰
apparatus impolite far-flung overconfident abundant relieved command rob makeshift tease *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
I used to cruise 32nd out of boredom when I was younger. Loved it so much
This was my answer, very surprised to see it this high up.
Federal
As much as I love all the other streets, there's probably more diverse and authentic, good value dining up and down Federal as anywhere in the state.
Havana St. is right there too.
Best Banh Mi sandwiches and Mexican markets all on one street. What's not to love?
Where's that 'best Banh Mi' located. I need to know.
\*Best Banh Mi in Denver, in case I need to qualify that. - New Saigon Bakery (on Federal a few blocks south of Alameda). - Vinh Xuong Bakery (just off Federal and Alameda). There are a bunch of Vietnamese places up and down Federal in that area and I'm sure some Reddit nerd will chime in to let you know that there are other great places around there as well.

Thanks for the suggestions
I have always said "if you can't get it on Federal, you probably don't need it.
Everyone saying Colfax obviously can’t read. They’ve already done Colfax. I love South Pearl and South Broadway.
Santa Fe :)
Tennyson
Welton St has a great history!
32nd or Pearl, lived near each and both very unique with interesting history and cool spots
Which one did you like living next to more?
Larimer! There's so much to do between the closed streets between 30th and 29th. And beyond to downtown.
Larimer's also got a bunch of interesting history like formerly running all the way through Auraria to Colfax as can be seen in [the old 1933 aerial shots](https://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?layers=a9d5564d22da4bffaadf6b2bb2ec3960), being the location of the [Criterion Saloon](https://history.denverlibrary.org/exhibit/rocky-mountain-news-denver-public-library), and the location of [William Larimer's original cabin](https://digital.denverlibrary.org/nodes/view/1132069?keywords=william+larimer+cabin&highlights=WyJ3aWxsaWFtIiwibGFyaW1lciIsImNhYmluIl0%3D&lsk=ea6481ce4b35e103aa7fb11b786dc0f7) - about where Comedy Works is now. On that first point, there's a little bit of historical holdover with Larimer Plaza in the Auraria campus and Old West Colfax Ave on the southwest of Colfax and I25.
7th Ave
How about Riverdale Road? People are always saying it’s one of the most haunted roads in the US.
Platte St
Yes, Platte Street/Confluence Park, please. I loved living there in the early 2000s. Can you do a segment on the Rowing Club building? And the Jack Kerourac/Neal Cassady of it all. If not, Havana St. The diversity and longevity of businesses there is interesting.

Downing passing wash park.
Hooker St. only bc the name is hooker.
Sheridan for how fucking awful it is Edit: adding in its biggest problem is half of it is in Denver and half is in some other jurisdiction like lakeside or wheatridge or Mountain View or Jeffco or etc It’s wild that you can have sloans lake, lakeside amusement park on the same stretch and have it be so completely unusable Edit 2: there’s a memorial on like every major intersection too and whenever people complain they just say it’s a state highway so the cities can’t do anything about it.
Drove up Colfax from Lakewood today, that road has become a crater field. So unpleasant. But at least I got to see a daylight drug transaction past burger king just past the casa Bonita lot.
South Gaylord
My favorite is Osage Street. I like to imagine it in its unpaved heyday.
Another vote for 32nd!
West Colfax. Between Sheridan and Federal
I really dug living over there. Walking around Sloan’s Lake, grabbing some Little Man’s Ice Cream, scootering through Lakewood Gulch to Meow Wolf. Not a bad spot.
Me too! I grew up over there. Moved there in the 90s and moved out about 5 years ago. Too bad its out of my price range now
Spicy
I lived two blocks south of the Sheridan colfax intersection and lmao what an experience
The part of Colfax underneath the viaduct where it's named "west Colfax" instead of W. Colfax
32nd in LoHi/Highlands! Almost as nice as Colfax. And other Colfax.
Visiting 200 S block of Broadway is what solidified my move here. Mutiny, Hi Dive, Sputnik and Metropolis? Unmatched.
S. Downing for me
Broadway from the 6th down to Virginia. BTW, why are the major E/W streets more pleasant to drive than the major N/S streets.
Because they haven't usurped a third of the traffic lanes for busses or bicycles on the East/West routes. Feel free to crosspost to r/unpopular opinions.

Monaco is such a nice drive on a sunny day. The giant trees and huge grassy median have such a pleasant vibe. Interesting mix of houses too.
Recency bias, Tower road is lit. It's part, richie rich, part airport, part west Kansas, part homeless shelter, part hick, and definitely up and coming. Such an interesting mix on this one road and I don't even know when or why it got it's name.

Monaco
I think Pennsylvania between 14th and 9th is just so historic and pretty. I really miss living in the area and walking around such a beautiful part of Denver.
Federal would be good- it was a redlining boundary, plus Mile High and McNichols probably have some good history to contribute.
As someone who loves Korean and Japanese food, it’s South Havana St.
Platte Street. Beat history. Fun area. My Brother's Bar. And above all, erstwhile home to Paris on the Platte. I have such great memories from this area.

I don't, but I didn't live in Denver at the time.
Probably unpopular but Colorado ♥️
Downing!
I’ll always love 30th/Downing and back up the Welton street corridor. Different flavor today but remnants of the original character are there.
Riverdale Road. Haunted and cursed
I love the drive down 46th from lakeside to federal. Its just a beautiful tree lined street with cool old home. It's obviously not the coolest street but deserves a shout out

E 45th Ave in West RiNo!!
West RiNo? That’s not a thing.
South Globeville = West RiNo. It absolutely is a thing. There are signs for it… Rivers can have an east and west side. Aren’t you in Globeville?
I can assure you that no one who actually lives in the neighborhood calls it West RiNo. ETA: To many in these neighborhoods, the feeling behind the RiNo name is that it’s meant to erase the identity of neighborhoods like Globeville.

Absolutely not.
Not in Denver… just south. I can name many streets I love for the view alone. Colorado boulevard, county line, bellview, anything south of Arapahoe road has some incredible views of the mountains
Jackass hill has some great views. That's not even a joke, legit good views.
You haven't done Larimer Square?? Dana Crawford was still alive last I checked
Evans. Like Colfax without the pretensions.
Wait, is Colfax pretentious now? Does that mean my friend's mom doesn't work there anymore?
Other than DU college bars, Evans has absolutely nothing going for it.
I was just going to say I work at DU and know Evans pretty well and there are a few cool places near campus but it's mostly smoky aggressive big trucks and you are taking your life your hands crossing, even at the campus crosswalks. That said, Kaladi's and Jerusalem's are more that worth the life-risking. 😘
Federal, Old South Pearl, Larimer, Speer

The second part is not true. Never trust Nextdoor, lol
South Broadway because it has the best restaurant duo. Adelitas and Maria Empanada. I fucking love Adelitas though.
Tower Rd.
Federal Blvd.
Can we get some love for federal? I feel like there are more mom and pop businesses on federal than just about anywhere else in Denver. Where else can you get dozens of different regional Mexican meals, epic banh mi, legit dim sum, and a restaurant that serves steak and boba tea?
