March 24, 2005Mayor Hick drives the bung at Stranahan's
Photo courtesy of FlickrStranahan's Colorado Whiskey celebrated the corking of its 1,000th barrel on Wednesday, April 8 -- which means that the five-year-old micro-distillery has produced 52,800 gallons of whiskey at its facility in the Ballpark neighborhood. And who was on hand to drive home the cork, or "bung," as it is apparently called, but Mayor John Hickenlooper -- a man who gets to do all the cool stuff around town.
April 9, 2009Run Mayor Hick, Run
Did John Hickenlooper officially announce his re-election campaign in a downtown whiskey distillery this week? Or was the ever-entertaining Denver mayor just feeling particularly spirited (the election is May 2, 2011). The truth is murky -- almost as murky as this poorly composed cell-phone image captured just minutes before the "news." Read for yourself in our Café Society blog here.

April 11, 2002Wake-Up Call: The state of this city
Mayor John Hickenlooper delivered his seventh State of the City speech yesterday, standing on the Greek Pavilion in Civic Center Park at the start of the work day. It was a stunning setting for a sobering speech; the park's lushness made Hickenlooper's message all the more stark: There's no money -- in fact, there's less than the city thought even a week ago, before projections came back with a $120 million gap over the next two years, sending the State of the City back for rewrite. "We face

"What can we save if we sell this red carpet on eBay?"Mayor John Hickenlooper may be starring in his own documentary series, but if this morning's Denver Post is any indication, he's soon going to be starring in his own political thriller, in which he somehow tries to trim $120 million from the city's budget without decimating services, putting more people out of work, or taking more money out of his citizens' already-flimsy wallets. From the Post: He said he doubts the city has faced as dras
July 22, 2009Appearing together tonight: Tequila, wine, Mexican food and the mayor

John Hickenlooper and Bill Ritter let their hair down (click to enlarge).In today's Denver Post, media writer Joanne Ostrow takes on the September cover of Denver Magazine, in which Channel 31 stars Libby Weaver and Natalie Tysdal are transformed from anchors to shank-ers. After spotlighting quotes from Weaver and station exec Carolyn Kane shrugging off any scent of controversy over the couples' quasi-salacious pose, Ostrow essentially suggests that, given the difficulties the TV industry
August 27, 2009John Hickenlooper's budget-cut pitch
John Hickenlooper.The first specific cut listed by Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper in a letter to the citizens of the city about his budget-cut proposal involves reducing the programming on Denver's Channel 8 to "public-meeting coverage and select programming." The latter apparently includes a newly posted video of Hickenlooper himself trying to personalize the hefty slashes, which include reducing hours at libraries (as well as closing and selling the Byers branch), potentially privatizin
September 16, 2009Hickenlooper finds more library funding -- by taking a chunk out of his homeless plan
Jeanne Faatz.Moments from now, Mayor John Hickenlooper will be meeting with the media to talk about a revision in his budget plan -- additional bucks to save the Byers library , which had been marked for closure, and keep other branches open for longer hours. And where is he getting the dough? Well, over a million is coming from homeless program funding that he announced mere weeks ago. Back then, City Councilwoman Jeanne Faatz was among the few politicos willing to oppose this feel-good
October 14, 2009Wake-Up Call: John Hickenlooper, Mayor of the (really) Mile High City
"Rocky Mountain High" is getting quite a work-out as national media outlets run stories on the booming medical marijuana business in Colorado. With both city and state officials talking about reining in the industry with new regulations, I put calls into both Governor Bill Ritter and Mayor John Hickenlooper on Monday, asking for their thoughts on this new, really green, really growing field. I'm still waiting to hear back from the governor's office. But Hickenlooper, who first came to th
October 28, 2009Cafe Society gathering at the Fainting Goat tonight
Ten years ago this month Westword left LoDo -- where the paper had been housed, in an assortment of offices, for more than twenty years, since long before lower downtown even had a hip nickname. Moving to the edge of the Golden Triangle, we found the space and parking we needed -- but we left behind the watering holes where we'd conducted so much of our business. The Wazee Lounge & Supper Club. My Brother's Bar. McCormick's. And the Wynkoop Brewing Co., where we first became acquainted wi
