What’s Your Zoning?
Regardless of your position on the current zoning debate taking place right now in the Highland neighborhood between the No High Rises in West Highland Group and RedPeak Properties, one thing should be completely clear…as a home owner, you must understand the Denver zoning code, you must know how your property is zoned, and you must know how your neighbors’ properties are zoned!
Even if you have no thoughts of ever developing your property or changing the external appearance of your home, your neighbors may not have the same plans for their home and their plans could greatly impact your property’s value. Fortunately, most of Denver’s Zoning code is logical, and you probably won’t be surprised by the zoning of your neighborhood, but that also might not be the case…
To find out the zoning of your property, refer to the Denver Zoning Map. Simply type in your property’s address and click search. For example, typing in “3220 Meade Street” returns the map below showing that the property is zoned U-MS-5 (which basically means…”Urban - Main Street - 5″ where the 5 more or less refers to the number of allowable levels).
To find out exactly what the zoning of your property means and specifically what type of development is allowable on your property or on that of your neighbors’, download a copy of the Denver Zoning Code. Doing a quick find on “U-MS-5″ will bring you to the following short description followed by a ton of details which pretty clearly describe what the City will allow to be constructed.
Now, if you’re a home owner on a residential street like Meade St. in the Highland neighborhood and you discover that you’re zoned U-MS-5, you probably won’t be too happy to read the above description and should probably start getting involved in your neighborhood association! If, on the other hand, you’re a landowner/developer who wants to build some high density apartments near the popular 32nd and Lowell retail area, you’re probably pretty happy to read the above description and should get your plans submitted for permit asap!
If you check out the Denver Zoning Code and have questions, contact Red Door Properties to discuss.

Highland, Lower Highlands, Potter Highlands…What’s the difference?
There are so many northwest Denver neighborhood names (Highland, Highlands, East Highlands, West Highlands, Potter Highlands, Lower Highlands, Sunnyside, Berkeley, Sloan’s Lake and Jefferson Park), but which neighborhood names are “correct?”
Well, I guess the answer depends on how you define, “correct.” Often people casually refer to all of the areas of northwest Denver as “The Highlands” and then break the Highlands into sub-neighborhoods like Berkeley and Sunnyside.
City of Denver Neighborhood Map
The City of Denver, however, breaks northwest Denver up into the following 6 distinct neighborhoods: Highland (no “s”), Sunnyside, Berkeley, West Highland (again, no “s”), Sloan Lake and Jefferson Park. Potter Highlands (apparently the City is good with the “s” here) is often used interchangeably by locals with Lower Highlands (aka “LoHi”), but Potter Highlands is actually a Denver Historic District with distinct boundaries inside of the official Highland neighborhood. Surprisingly, according to the City’s map, Lower Highland doesn’t officially exist!
Potter Highlands Historic District
Red Door Properties provides neighborhood descriptions and pre-set housing searches for the non-official, casually defined neighborhoods of Berkeley, Sunnyside, Highland (the City’s official “West Highland”), LoHi or Lower Highland (the City’s official “Highland”) and Sloan’s Lake. These neighborhood boundaries and names may not be officially correct, but this is how most people refer to the areas.
Are you now more confused about the northwest Denver neighborhood names than you were before you read this blog?!?
