Denver’s Oldest Neighborhood.
LoDo (Lower Downtown) is home to nearly 100 restaurants, clubs, galleries, shops, and hospitality. A mix-use neighborhood for residents and tourist alike.
In 1858 a small amount of gold was discovered at the confluence of the South Platte River and Cherry Creek and would become the birthplace of Lower Downtown (LoDo). As the birthplace of our city, and a recent revitalization success story, the area provides an important link between past and present. Today LoDo contains one of the finest remaining collections of late nineteenth and early twentieth-century commercial buildings in the American West.

The 16th St. viaduct is no longer but as you can see the Barteldes Seed (1906) building still stands. If you look closely, the sign on the the streetcar says “Good-Bye Old Friends: My Last Day is June 3rd”. The photo was taken in the 1950’s. Denver had one of the nation’s largest networks of streetcars during the early 20th Century, with over 250 miles if track, which was headquartered in the Tramway Building which is now Hotel Teatro. By the 1950’s the streetcar routes were abandoned and made way for busses.
