LoDo

Lower Downtown (known as LoDo) is the place to go for the quintessential Downtown Denver experience. With a mix of warehouse conversions, upscale lofts and cutting-edge workspaces, the district is recognized nationally for historic preservation and urban revitalization. The picturesque past-meets-present vibe attracts everyone from students (from the nearby Auraria campus) to young professionals and empty-nester residents to global tech companies – providing the district with the highest foot traffic levels in all of Downtown Denver. 

Anchored by Colorado’s iconic Union Station, a multi-modal transportation hub since 1894, and Larimer Square, Denver’s oldest commercial block dating back to 1858, LoDo’s lively energy flows from a mix of arts and cultural destinations, boutique retail, and a flourishing culinary scene – including two of Colorado’s Michelin-recognized eateries. The coffeeshops, bars and coworking spaces of LoDo provide a highly desirable “third place” for Denver’s creative and entrepreneurial workforce to connect with friends, find community and spark new ideas. For visitors, direct train access from the nation’s third busiest airport brings people from all over the world straight into LoDo. The area provides the perfect launching point to both nearby attractions (think Meow Wolf, Ball Arena, Coors Field, Empower Field at Mile High, and Elitches) or a trip to Colorado’s #1 destination, the iconic Rocky Mountains.
