Situated directly north of downtown, Uptown Denver is a lively, hip neighborhood bordering some of Denver's best attractions, like the Paramount Theatre, the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, and the Pepsi Center. The University of Colorado Denver is just about a mile from Uptown's center. The Colorado State Capitol is on the southwest corner of the neighborhood.
Aesthetically, Uptown is dynamic, featuring historic Victorian and Queen Anne-style homes interspersed with modern loft-style apartment complexes. Tree-lined boulevards enhance the residential feel and help draw a variety of new residents to this corner of the city. The neighborhood provides the best of both worlds for culturally savvy urbanites who enjoy the feel of a community-oriented neighborhood with access to superb outdoor facilities and world-class restaurants.
