Cherry Creek, Denver Colorado
The phrase, "You've come a long way, baby," certainly applies to Cherry Creek. Originally zoned R-2 after World War II to provide inexpensive housing for Lowry Air Force Base, Cherry Creek evolved into one of the most prestigious and economically stable areas in the Denver Metro Area. Today, it is a neighborhood of artist, doctors, bankers, entrepreneurs and retirees, to name a few. It's an established neighborhood governed by a homeowner's association. Residents often have block parties and frequently host fund-raising events in their homes. True to the nature of the neighborhood, the renowned Cherry Creek Mall was once a Denver City dump. Every summer, Cherry Creek hosts an internationally recognized, Arts Festival on the Fourth of July weekend, which enhances the area's well-deserved place on the map of the art world.
