Highlands

Highlands is a distinct city-center neighborhood in Denver, bounded by West 38th Avenue to the north, a Union Pacific Railroad line on the east, the South Platte River to the southeast, Speer Boulevard on the south and Federal Boulevard on the west. The misnomer Highlands is sometimes used to refer to two separate city-center neighborhoods in Denver, Highlands and West Highlands, although the two neighborhoods are distinct. Highlands and West Highlands are both in the area that is referred to as North Denver.
