GREENWOOD VILLAGE
Over the past 50 years, Greenwood Village has gone from a land of gravel roads and small farms to an energetic blend of residential and commercial areas. Greenwood Village contains nationally recognized business parks, like the Denver Tech Center, a variety of delicious restaurants, and the popular Fiddler’s Green Amphitheater. The area is also home to select neighborhood associations with mostly single-family homes and various apartment complexes.
From the High Line Canal to Cherry Creek State Park, the residents have a multitude of recreational opportunities including miles of trails for hiking and cycling, top-notch parks and playing fields, and even a skateboarding park. Children and parents alike love Westlands Park, near Orchard and Quebec, which features a terrific playground, open playing fields, and a wonderful creek bed for exploring. Top-rated schools in Greenwood Village include Greenwood and Cottonwood Creek Elementary, Campus Middle, and Cherry Creek High, all in the highly rated Cherry Creek School District.
Like most suburbs, it has an irregular map but spans from roughly University to Havana and Belleview to Orchard. The community is quite diverse, featuring stately homes, towering condominium buildings, older and brand new apartment buildings, and a range of commercial ventures in locations ranging from strip malls to the venerable Denver Tech Center. In fact, the DTC provides an enormous tax base for the community, and as a result, you’ll find beautiful parks and landscaping, and plentiful jobs within a short commute.
