By Michael RobertsJanuary 17, 2018

As recently as last month, year-to-year rent increases in Denver were ranked among the highest in the country. So it comes as a shock to discover that two bedrooms in Denver proper are now more affordable than comparably sized units in eleven other metro-area places.

By Michael RobertsJanuary 15, 2018

Attorney Rob Corry has now filed a second complaint in regard to the Denver 420 Rally. He’d previously sued the City and County of Denver on behalf of rally co-founder Miguel Lopez, who lost his priority event status and was banned from putting on the event during the next three years for allegedly violating his permit by leaving Civic Center Park trashed. Now, he wants injunctive relief on behalf of another client, Michael Ortiz, who was initially granted a permit for April 20 only to have his application denied by Allegra “Happy” Haynes, Denver’s Parks and Rec director, and given instead to Euflora, a dispensary chain with very different plans for the gathering.
