Welcome to Washington Park / Bonnie Brae


Unmatched outdoor urban amenities and superb main street amenities 

The incredibly walkable and fun urban enclave of Denver is lively almost any day of the week. With a central location just minutes from LoDo and Denver's more southerly neighborhoods, Wash Park stands right in the middle of the action, though from a comfortable enclave. Nearby Bonnie Brae is equally lively and has a deeply charming pace, providing an incredibly joyous atmosphere in its portion of Denver's favorite urban neighborhood.

What to Love

  • Vibrant, fit, and active energy
  • The enjoyment of calling Wash Park a veritable front-yard oasis
  • A perfect blend of upscale urban amenities and idyllic green spaces
  • Central position that grants locals easy access to the finest amenities of Denver and the surrounding area

Local Lifestyle


From peaceful walks to breezy runs through the wooded trails, the beauty of Wash Park itself gives no illusion as to why it's the preferred Denver neighborhood's namesake. With Bonnie Brae close by, the locals enjoy two incredible main street areas — any one of which would be considered a treasure for those enjoying a casual night or weekend out on the town. Beyond its impressive range of shops, the remarkably upscale options of Cherry Creek are also close by, lending a bit of everything to those who call Wash Park home.

Dining, Entertainment & Shopping


Wash Park Grill
offers a classy and bold take on American and Italian fare in an elevated environment, all with outstanding and friendly service that will keep you coming back for more. For classic Mexican entrées done right, you'll love Perdida Kitchen. The ultra-chic and cheerful dining space gives a high level of modern class, and the outdoor terrace is also thoughtfully arranged, where you'll enjoy equally outstanding flavors from across the border.

Reiver's Bar and Grill delivers excellent pub comfort food, and a wide assortment of craft brews Denver is known for, all in an incredibly down-to-earth setting. For the best Mediterranean flavors in Denver, Mecca Grill has it all. Their Shawarma and kebab dishes are addictive, and their special style of falafel and grilled lamb makes for a stunningly flavorful experience.

If you're feeling inspired to follow your own beat, you definitely can't go wrong gathering your friends and visiting Old South Gaylord Street, where you'll find an even broader assortment of pubs, cafés, shops, and local hangouts.

Things to Do

When Thanksgiving arrives, gather the family (dogs included!) and join in on the annual Turkey Trot. Held the morning of Thanksgiving, it's the perfect way to share your appreciation with the town and people that are near to your heart.

On any other given day, you'll find all the casual charm you can handle at South Pearl Street, Bonnie Brae's historic and highly walkable town center. Here, you'll find an incredibly upbeat yet relaxing pace that creates a highly satisfying rhythm for the day. The energy is reminiscent of European-style main streets, and the shops, cafés, and restaurants can keep you satisfied throughout the many sunny Colorado days.
