Tour of Washington Park in Denver, Colorado

Introducing Washington Park in Denver, CO

If you’re looking for Denver’s Best Neighborhoods, this virtual tour of Washington Park, AKA Wash Park, is a great place to start. With one of the best parks, some of the most beautiful homes, great schools, and a very convenient location - Washington Park Denver is without a doubt, one of the best!


Let’s get into it shall we?!



Washington Park Vibes

If you’re a local, you probably call it Wash Park. Like most of Denver proper, Wash park is fully developed with no land left over to build on. Because of that you’ll see a lot of “scrapes”. People buy houses that are in need of a lot of help, scrape the whole thing, and put a new build there. It is extremely rare to find land and the scrape can be the most economical option sometimes.


Washington Park, the park itself, has everything. It is immaculately maintained with a really cool playground, tennis courts, and a giant field where volleyball is a very popular weekend activity - this park is what it’s all about. Not only do the surrounding neighborhoods come to visit, people come here from all over Denver.


Cool spots to check out in Wash Park:

  • Bonnie Brae Ice Cream

  • Devil’s Food Bakery

  • Homegrown Tap & Dough

  • The Cookery at Myrtle Hill

  • Perdida

  • Washington Park Grille


Home Price Statistics Ranked the third most expensive neighborhood in Denver, there is a lot of pride of ownership for Wash Park residents, with about 80% of residents owning versus renting.
