The Golden Triangle is one of the most interesting neighborhoods in Denver. It encompasses 45 blocks, bounded by Speer Boulevard, Colfax Avenue, and Lincoln Street.
This includes Civic Center Park with the Denver City & County Building and the McNichols Building, the Museum District with the Denver Art Museum, the Central Library, the Byers-Evans House, the C.E.L.L., the Clyfford Still Museum, the Kirkland Museum, and the History Colorado Center, plus a number of galleries, restaurants, clubs and many apartments and condos.
The northwest corner of the neighborhood is the Denver Justice Center with the Van Cise-Simonet Detention Center and the Lindsey-Flanagan Courthouse. The Denver Mint is immediately to the east of these buildings. Continuing to the northeast corner you find the Ralph L. Carr Colorado Judicial Center.
Another highlight of the area is the historic Evans School, just south of the Denver Art Museum. This magnificent, well-preserved, classical revival structure is a neglected centerpiece of the neighborhood. It is now being converted to offices, retail, and an event venue.
The Curious Theater has occupied an old church at 1080 Acoma since 1999 and is known for their "no guts, no story" productions of new, cutting edge work.
Major galleries include Walker Fine Art, William Havu Gallery, Sandra Phillips Gallery, and the Colorado Photographic Arts Center.
The Golden Triangle truly offers something for everyone. read more
