Welcome to Capitol Hill! Denver´s Capitol Hill district, often nicknamed "Cap Hill," is one of the most diverse neighborhoods in the Denver real estate market. Capitol Hilll, located just north of downtown Denver, is bounded by Broadway to the west, Colfax Avenue to the north, Downing Street to the east and Sixth Avenue to the south. It neighbors both the Colorado State Capitol and Civic Center Park.
While Capitol Hill was once home to many inexpensive apartments, the area has undergone a significant transformation over the past decade. There are now numerous high-end residential offerings including upscale condos and townhomes that are sprinkled among older single family homes. All of this has led to an increase in both real estate prices and property taxes.
The majority of Capitol Hill´s buildings, which were built in the 1920´s, offer a sense of eclectic charm that is hard to find anywhere else in the Denver real estate market. Since the Capitol Hill area dates back to 1864, it is home to some of the oldest single-family homes in the Denver area.
The Capitol Hill neighborhood has a very rich culture that opens its arms to many different people. It is host to numerous eclectic festivals throughout the year including the popular Capitol Hill People´s Fair, which is tagged as an "annual celebration of Denver´s diversity."
Capitol Hill is near many prominent hospitals including Children´s Hospital and St. Joseph´s Hospital. It is also the home of many well-known eateries and bars including Governor´s Park Bar and Grill and Charlie Brown´s. Capitol Hill residents also enjoy the many amenities of the nearby Cheesman Park, which they often claim as their own.
