Cheesman Park

1599 E 8th Ave

Today Denver’s Cheesman Park is an elegant 80-acre green oasis at the heart of Capitol Hill, one of Denver’s most densely populated neighborhoods. One of Denver’s oldest parks, it is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The park’s “undulating topography, mountain vistas, green lawns, and stately trees offer an oasis of shade and refuge from the busy City” (Cheesman Park Master Plan, 2008). The classically designed pavilion honors Walter S. Cheesman, a Denver pioneer and the park’s namesake.  The park is also home to 8 trees that are listed by Denver Forestry as Champion and Notable Trees.
