Cartoonist Draws on Denver History for Trek Up Brighton Boulevard

Independent Journalism in Denver Needs You

We need to raise $25,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.

Progress to goal

$25,000

Cartoonist Karl Christian Krumpholz has been exploring Denver for years, diving into history and then sharing discoveries that cover everything from the 16th Street Mall to Union Station, from West Colfax to East Colfax.

Join him now on a tour of Brighton Boulevard, which over the past twenty years has been transformed from a dusty warehouse area to a hip arts district to the hottest real estate in town today.
