Couple of other things.

A brand new light rail line will soon stop adjacent to the DU campus and put students within a very few minutes of all of the very neat downtown areas like The Denver Pavilions and LoDo, which is the area around Coors Field. It will terminate within walking distance of the Pepsi Center -- or even Mile High Stadium (I don't want to say Invesco Field) if you're a long walker. LoDo is just full of great bars, clubs and restaurants. One of them is owned by Denver's new Mayor. Daughter number two also works in one a couple nights a week. Light rail also goes by the Denver Center for the Performing Arts -- the largest performing arts complex outside of NYC. A lot of the big touring companies of Broadway Shows premiere here, ie. The Lion King, Sunset Boulevard, Oklahoma and others. Next seasons shows include Hairspray and Movin' Out.

I should work for the Chamber of Commerce.

Also, did you notice it's yet another college with an "initial" identity crisis. It's name is "the University of Denver," but we call it DU. Kind of like "the University of Colorado," which we call CU.

Ditto on the comments on the Wash Park area -- just try to stay sober enough not to run into the lake.

(Did someone mean Guvnor's Park? Great bar/restaurant, but more in the Capital Hill -- another great, but expensive place to live with very young demographics -- area than Wash Park. Or is there another place I'm unaware of?)
