History of Barnum Neighborhood and How it Got its Name
Circus showman P.T. Barnum purchased the land in this neighborhood in 1878. It was later developed by his daughter Helen and her husband William Buchtel.

With close proximity to the West Rail RTD Line and 6th Avenue, residents can easily commute to downtown Denver and Golden.
