RiNo is home to numerous breweries and shops. As recent transplants from Brooklyn, NY, we get a Greenpoint vibe from this neighborhood and love bicycling down Brighton Blvd to grab a beer (we like Mockery) or shop for plants at Birdsall!

The Highlands are a popular restaurant destination in Denver with tons of great drinking and dining spots. At the southern edge of the neighborhood is Confluence Park, which is where the Platt River and Cherry Creek confluence. There you can find bicycle trails and parks along the river bank, as well as the flagship R.E.I. store. We recommend drinks at Prost Brewery and dinner at Daughter Thai!

University Park is the neighborhood we are located in. It is a primarily residential neighborhood with great park amenities including Observatory Park and the Harvard Gulch. There are three light rail train stations located about .8 miles away from our home at the periphery of the neighborhood along I-25. I-25 also makes for quick access to the mountains, downtown, and other great regional destinations!
