The East Washington Park Neighborhood


The East Washington Park neighborhood is one of the most desirable in Denver, especially if you are lucky enough to have a house facing the park, such as the one in the photograph above. During the fall, with the changing colors of the leaves, it is especially beautiful. Not too long after my then wife Lisa and I got married, we looked at a house on this street that was for sale and priced at $289,000. That was a fortune back then, and naturally we couldn't afford it. Of course, since we later got divorced, neither of us would have been able to hang on to that house anyway, and so our not buying it was not the major financial mistake it might appear to be. These days, the price of one of those houses is astronomical. And no senior discounts, either. Life is so unfair.
