For you ex-Boulderites who’ve left Shangri-La for careers, strippers and Rockies games down here in Cowtownthere’s now a glowing orb of a place that spews great beer and food like a solar flare.
Veering wildly off the marketing path by opting for an “un-Sun” name, the folks at Mountain Sun opened the Vine Street Pub (corner of 17th Ave. and Vine Street) on April 14th right here in Denver. That means the excellent micro-brews, creative food and laid-back,
hippie atmosphere has joined this cozy little neighborhood just a
couple blocks north of Colfax. I guess we Denverites need some Sun,
too.

Down by Cherry Creek, there’s a statue in a small
park on the south side of the street just before the intersection of
Speer and Downing. That statue is a memorial for the Hungarian uprising
of 1956, and it stands in the Hungarian Freedom Park.
This monument, which was the first of its kind in
North America, commemorates the revolt of the Hungarian people against
Soviet oppression. The park itself was once called Arlington Park, and
was originally designed by Saco R. DeBoer, who also designed Alamo
Placita Park on the other side of Speer.
