Our West Side Stories

Found on page 129 of How the West Side Won, along with the following inscription: "Virtually from the time the Auraria campus was initially proposed in the late 1960s, boosters came up with all sorts of science-fiction themes for AHEC and the way it was to connect with the rest of the city. This student cartoon from 1972 emphasizes the fanciful nature of some of the schemes."

On Changing Denver this month, we visit Santa Fe Drive on the first Friday of the month and meet up with “an old friend” to share some stories from the West Side.

We bought our copy of Phil Goodstein’s new book, How the West Side Won, at one of Denver’s independent booksellers.
