A little history

Lakewood District in Denver. Denver, officially the City and County of Denver, is the capital and most populous city of Colorado. It is a consolidated city and county in the South Platte River valley, on the western edge of the High Plains and just east of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains.

Notable neighborhoods in Denver's Lakewood District include:

Fort Logan. Fort Logan was a military installation southwest of Denver. It was established in October 1887, when the first soldiers camped on the land, and it closed in 1946, following the end of World War II. After the fort closed, the site was used as a mental health center, and part of the land was set aside for the Fort Logan National Cemetery.

Villa Park and West Colfax. Villa Park is a Denver neighborhood. Its hilly topography provides panoramic views of downtown Denver and of the Rocky Mountains, particularly from Lakewood / Dry Gulch Park, which divides the neighborhood diagonally. West Colfax is a neighborhood in the West Denver area. In 2015 its population was 9,120, and it had 4,055 housing units.
