Potter Highland Historic District forms the oldest section of Highland, defined by preserved Victorian-era homes and an intact street layout dating to the late 19th century. Architectural consistency sets this area apart from surrounding development.
The district’s streets feel deliberate and residential, with scale and design reflecting early Denver planning. While located near major river crossings and downtown access points, the historic district remains visually and functionally distinct.
Potter Highland offers a focused look at Denver’s early residential history. It preserves form and pattern rather than adapting to modern density.
