Noteworthy Mention of Cory Merrill Neighborhood

This highly sought-after neighborhood has become a popular choice for both families and millennials, featuring tremendous location and wide range of homes.

History of Cory Merrill

The Cory-Merrill neighborhood was named after the schools in the area and has a unique architectural history. The area was originally developed after World World II by developer Les Tremblay, who purchased many of the existing lots and built tract homes for returning military personnel. These small two and three bedroom homes gradually began to disappear as the 21st century saw many people desiring new and larger homes. The homes are popular for families and millennials who enjoy the easy access to I-25 and the RTD light rail station at the University of Denver.

Accessibility and Recreation

The best part about the Cory-Merrill neighborhood is its location near so many great parts of Denver. People who live in this not well-known area are a just a short bike ride from such popular areas as Washington Park, Bonnie Brae, the shops on Old South Gaylord and DU restaurants and bars.

Cory Elementary is considered one of the best elementary schools in the city which is one of the reasons this neighborhood has gained popularity among families. One of the more unique areas of Cory-Merrill is the Archdiocese of Denver and St. John Vianney Theological  Seminary. Residents enjoy walking and biking around this 40-acre property and taking in the beautifully landscaped grounds.
