Join Five Points BID Board Member and other Five Points neighborhood leaders as we explore the past, present, and future of the “Harlem of the West.” On this tour participants will ride to the corridor on the Welton Street Streetcar (RTD L Line). From there, the walking tour will visit some of Five Points’ most treasured spaces, like Sonny Lawson Park (the site of Denver’s first Negro League baseball game), music venues that hosted jazz icons such as Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Nat King Cole, and Dinah Washington; the city and RTD efforts to invest in the neighborhood, and the important neighborhood champions who do the same.
