Overview

This 45-minute walking tour explores Denver's wild past through Lower City centre (LoDo), from its rough warehouse origins to today's vibrant area. Starting at the mysterious sealed tunnel entrance on Market Street, you'll discover the transformation of this historic district.

Tour highlights include:

• Historic tunnel entrance where coal transport led to underground illicit activities
• The Sugar Building from Colorado's sugar beetroot industry era
• Haunted Oxford Hotel's Cruise Room with ghost Florence Montague in room 320
• McGregor Square and Coors Field that sparked LoDo's revitalisation
• Rockmount Ranch Wear, creators of the first snapped western shirt
• Dairy Block alley's European atmosphere and restored 1918 Windsor Dairy building
• Site of the only known gun duel between two women

You'll hear stories of whisky parties, destroyed Chinatown, haunted locations, and the infamous House of Mirrors brothel while learning how Denver evolved into the Mile High City.
