Denver 4K - Mile High City - Driving Downtown

Early morning drive in around Downtown Denver before heading into the Colorado Rockies.
Denver, the capital of Colorado, is an American metropolis dating to the Old West era. Larimer Square, the city’s oldest block, features landmark 19th-century buildings. Museums include the Denver Art Museum, an ultramodern complex known for its collection of indigenous works, and the mansion of famed Titanic survivor Molly Brown. Denver is also a jumping-off point for ski resorts in the nearby Rocky Mountains.

Denver is the capital and most-populous city of the U.S. state of Colorado. Denver is located in the South Platte River Valley on the western edge of the High Plains just east of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. With an estimated population of 727,211 in 2019, Denver is the 19th-most populous city in the United States, the fifth-most populous state capital, and the most populous city located in the Mountain states. It is nicknamed the Mile High City because its official elevation is exactly one mile (5280 feet or 1609.3 meters) above sea level. The 105th meridian west of Greenwich, the longitudinal reference for the Mountain Time Zone, passes directly through Denver Union Station.

Denver is ranked as a Beta world city by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network. The 10-county Denver-Aurora-Lakewood, CO Metropolitan Statistical Area had an estimated 2018 population of 2,932,415 and was the 19th most populous U.S. metropolitan statistical area. The 12-city Denver-Aurora, CO Combined Statistical Area had an estimated 2018 population of 3,572,798 and was the 15th most populous U.S. metropolitan area. Denver is the most populous city within a 500-mile (800 km) radius and the second-most populous city in the Mountain West after Phoenix, Arizona. In 2016, Denver was named the best place to live in the United States by U.S. News & World Report.

I was born in Denver. Still live there. So, I had to watch this trying to imagine myself as a tourist and this was my first introduction to “The Mile High City.” Couple of things for everyone to note: Denver is much prettier in the summer. Our winters aren’t as harsh as many would think but it still makes for a dull and monotone look in the winter. And, sadly, the pandemic has really hurt the economy. While we are doing much, much better than other parts of the country, the vibrancy of Denver has gone. I hope this will change once the majority of the population is vaccinated. If you are watching this and thinking about visiting when safe travel is restored, please do so. Denver is a great place to visit and to live.

Love Denver. Depressing to see this otherwise hustling bustiling city so empty on a business morning. Nice tour. Thank you!

Even though I lived in Denver for 32 years, and worked downtown for 15 of them, I hardly recognize half of what I see here. I’ve been gone since 2002, with only occasional visits. Wow how things change!

I spent more than a decade driving cab in Denver in the 70s and 80s. I moved away in 1986 and have returned many times but this was a LOT of fun riding around downtown. Thanks for the morning ride.

Love Denver. It’s an amazing city. I lived there for a short time and fell in love.

From someone who drives in London. I'm so jealous watching this. The roads are so much better to drive on.
