Capitol Hill Resident Pens History Book

More Info on This Book: Denver's Capitol Hill Neighborhood

New from local author Amy Zimmer and Arcadia Publishing is Denver’s Capitol Hill Neighborhood, one of two new Denver area installments in the popular Images of America series.

When Henry Cordes Brown donated a parcel of his land in 1868 as a location for a future state capitol, no one could imagine what a thriving neighborhood the area around “Brown’s Bluff” would become. Twenty years later, Capitol Hill would grow into the city’s most fashionable residential district. Through the years, Capitol Hill evolved, seeing everything from millionaire’s row to skid row, and remains today one of Denver’s most diverse and intriguing neighborhoods.

Zimmer states, “In preparing this work, my hope has been that , by presenting the neighborhood’s history through multiple facets, readers will be able to see how Capitol Hill’s past made the area what it is today.”

Highlights of Denver’s Capitol Hill Neighborhood:
• Feature more than 200 vintage images.
• Explores the architectural history of the neighborhood.
• Includes photos of the eastern part of Colfax Avenue, which was once the nation’s longest commercial street.

Available at area bookstores, independent retailers, and online retailers, or through Arcadia Publishing at (888)-313-2665 or www.arcadiapublishing.com.
