    "Dogs likely to get parasites due to lack of picking up after dogs and sheer number of dogs in the neighborhood. Otherwise relatively friendly place to be. "

    "Nothing. This is a dog friendly neighborhood with more green space than most of Denver. The dog catchers are vigilant so letting Fido off leash is dangerous."

    "Lots of trees, good shade. Bit expensive but we live small so can take advantage. Nice thing is you live on a hill so the commute is downhill on the way in to work."

    "Beautiful neighborhood. Best Botanic gardens in the country. Cheesman Park itself is amazing - always tons of people walking their dogs, playing volleyball and frisbee and spike ball or just laying out on blankets with their friends. Close to the city as well as two other great parks - Washington and City Park"

    "It's great to know you're close to Cheesman Park AND City Park. Restaurants, coffee shops, pubs and shops are just a few blocks up on 17th, not to mention all up and down Colfax. Once you get home you can park the car and not drive the entire weekend. "
