Riverfront Park Denver Condos Lofts For Sale

Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg, of the Beat Generation of writers, discovered Denver and its rail yards through Neal Cassady.  Cassady was a Denver street theft with a deft brillance for writing himself.  He was an original.  Dean Moriarity, the principal character in Kerouac’s “On The Road”, is fashioned after Neal.

Riverfront Park is the revilatized area formerly occuppied by the railroad main tracks and siding tracks that are written about in “On The Road”.  Land of dusty streets and empty box cars for years, the City of Denver has completed 90-acres of parks in this Central Platte Valley neighborhood.  The countless tracks were eliminated and consolidated and the Millenium Bridge was constructed to span-over the remaining tracks connecting Riverfront Park with LoDo and Downtown Denver.  The Platte Pedestrian Bridge was built to allow people to continue over the South Platte River for more open space and trails.  The Highland Bridge was completed to allow pedestrians to cross Interstate-25 to LoHi, that is, the Lower Highland neighborhood.

Since its inception, over 2,500 residential units and 3-million square feet of commercial space has been constructed in Riverfront Park.  The area is home to the Museum Of Contemporary Art Denver, the Pepsi Center, the Denver Children’s Museum, the Denver Aquarium, the Denver Public Skate Park and more.  As a Riverfront Park resident, coffee shops, cafes, restaurants and shops are within walking distance.  Cross the Millenium Bridge and you are in LoDo with endless choices.
