The Park Hill neighborhood is one of Denver’s most prestigious historic neighborhoods. The land was originally bought and platted by Baron Allois Gullaume Eugene Von Winckler in April of 1887. Baron Von Winckler called his new development “Park Hill Ranch.” However, it was not until after Baron Von Winckler’s death in 1898 that the area really began to develop. The area covers a total of 32 blocks, stretching from Colorado to the East side of Dahlia and from the North side of Montview to 26th Ave.
There are approximately 700 homes in Park Hill, most of which were built between 1893 and 1941. Much of the building in the neighborhood occurred in the time periods immediately before and after American involvement in World War I and prior to the Great Depression of 1929. By 1934, the majority of lots had been purchased and only infill properties remained. Park Hill was also one of Denver’s first street car suburbs with a trolley line running down 23rd Avenue and Montview Boulevard.
