Larimer Square
Denver’s oldest block, with Victorian red-brick buildings hung with string lights. It is a popular street for dining and drinking.
Larimer Square, which covers the 1400 block of Larimer Street, was Denver’s earliest commercial district when the city was founded in 1858. It retains red-brick Victorian buildings from the 19th century. After preservation-minded renovations in the 1960s, it became the first historic district in the city. Today it is home to restaurants, bars and boutiques. The street is strung with lights, and the atmosphere is best at night. In summer, parts of the street are sometimes closed to traffic. Admission is free, and it is located in the LoDo district, within walking distance of Union Station, 16th Street and Coors Field.
