New condo construction and historical buildings converted into modern Denver condos intertwine with Victorian single family homes a short walk to a chic though low key business district that supplies its affluent population its own restaurants, bars, bookstores and coffee shops. Five minutes away from downtown Denver, the area captures the desire of a wide range of age groups looking for the comfortable but hip lifestyle that makes Highland some of Denver’s most popular real estate.  

Perched above the Platte River valley Highland was established in 1864 by Owen Le Fevre who along with a group of wealthy Denver-rites had left the Babylon of the old west (Denver), where cat houses were almost as frequents as the flooding, for higher land. The group formed a township in 1875, and though eventually annexed by the county of Denver, Highland spent considerable wealth in developing an architectural presence befitting a population who considered themselves the cultural elite. Denver’s annexation of Highland did not stop this growth and in fact it helped to spur it further with the introduction of a tramway running 32^nd Avenue. In fact, it was the tramway stops that helped build the areas vibrant retail business district.
