Denver’s Central Park area is comprised of a collection of neighborhoods on the northeast side of town and sits on the 7.5-square-mile former home of Stapleton International Airport.

The transformation of this area was one of the biggest urban infill projects in the United States. Construction began in 2001, and Central Park was designed to incorporate all the best features — parks, tree-lined streets, front porches, alley garages, and architectural diversity— of Denver’s highly sought-after neighborhoods.

Central Park is a pedestrian-friendly mix of apartments, condos, single-family homes, and businesses built to energy-efficient standards with water-wise landscaping. RTD’s A-line connects it to both Denver International Airport and Union Station.

With more than 29,000 residents and more than 100 business owners, Central Park is a collection of 12 neighborhoods: North End, Beeler Park, Bluff Lake, Central Park North, South End, Conservatory Green, Wicker, Eastbridge, Willow Park, East 29th Avenue, Westerly Creek, and Central Park West, each with its own style.

Central Park is all about convenience - it’s about 20 minutes to the airport and about 20 minutes to downtown Denver. It’s also very close to Children’s Hospital and the new Anschutz medical campus.

Central Park attracts both newcomers moving from out-of-state and metro Denver area renters moving into their first homes. The community offers more affordable housing options, and prices range from condos in the mid-$100s to houses that cost more than $1 million.

The area also gives buyers a good return on their investment. In May, the median price per square foot for a home in Central Park was $255, compared to $214 in the Denver metro area. And those prices were up from a year earlier when the median price per square foot was $234 in Central Park compared to $191 for the metro.

Featuring the best parts of Denver’s best neighborhoods, Central Park is a very desirable place to call home. If you’re ready to check out this exciting and dynamic area, give Metrowest a shout – we’d love to show you around!
