Washington Park Neigborhood Evolution

The urban redevelopment occurring in Denver and, more specifically, in the Washington Park neighborhood comes as a surprise to no one. But unanswered questions about this transitional process have left residents unsettled.

Washington Park Traffic Chaos Part 1

"Road Way Usage" has become a critical issue for those who enjoy the benefits of one of the city's most beautiful parks. Cyclists are accused of being reckless by the pedestrians. Complaints about skaters are that they don't consider themselves in the same classification as cyclists and therefore ride anywhere, in any direction, and occupy the entire lane with their swaying back and forth.

Washington Park Traffic Chaos Part 2

Denver Parks and Recreation has 1 full time park ranger for all of the Denver Park system. There are 4 people working at the permit desk on the second floor of the Wellington Webb building. The parks maintenance organization has enough FTEs to produce spectacular gardens at all of the city's parks. I assume the head of Parks and Recreation makes the decisions with regard to employee resource allocation.

"Washington Park Cares," or Does it?

There is an organization in its nascent stages in Washington Park and its objective is to build a group that would be supportive of seniors and others in need of assistance in our neighborhood. The concept has been successful in the Beacon Hill neighborhood of Boston and in other cities around the nation.
