    For years (maybe even decades), Glendale's annual Fourth of July fireworks display has been held at…read moreCreekside Park. The park is closed off for safety reasons but we take a picnic and camp out on the lawn at the neighboring Staybridge Suites to watch the action up close. It's a super fun way to kick off your Fourth of July festivities (for whatever reason, Glendale's fireworks always happen a day or two before July 4th). Earlier this week it was announced that the highly anticipated Glendale Riverwalk Project will be put on hold http://www.bizjournals.com/denver/blog/real_deals/2015/04/175-million-development-planned-for-glendale.html?surround=etf&ana=e_article. Instead, a new retail and entertainment district called Glendale 180 will be developed on a 22 acre parcel between Colorado Boulevard and Cherry Street, and Virginia Avenue and Cherry Creek. The city plans to break ground in the Fall of 2015 and officials hope to open for business in 2017. And this will mean that Creekside Park is going away. I'm torn. It's truly a shame to lose a nice, big park. But Glendale and its neighbors will be gaining job opportunities and new fun recreational activities. As it stands now, the design is thoughtfully planned with lots of open space, year-round landscaping, and meandering pathways that will create an inviting community gathering place. No office or residential space will be included in the new development, just shops, restaurants, and a cinema. And lots of parking. And relaxed open container laws! Apparently, Glendale used to be quite the hot spot back in the day so it's planning to get back to its partytime roots. Glendale 180 - see what they did there? The final fireworks display in Creekside Park is scheduled for Thursday, July 2, 2015. I, for one, will be there to help send Creekside Park out with a bang. Yelp Review #400

    Glendale's fireworks show is truly one of the best displays I've ever experienced. Popping a squat…read morein Creekside Park gives an exceptional up close and personal view of all the fireworks. I forgot about the joy of watching fireworks, it was like I was five years old all over again with a permanent grin plastered on my face. I hope Glendale decides to keep the Annual firework show going even after the new Glendale development goes up. I was impressed and awed by the whole evening. Thank you Vicki P. for showing me some of the best fireworks in Denver. Pro Tips for the optimal Firework experience: *Bring chairs (cup holders are a plus) *Bring a jacket or a blanket (it gets chilly in the evening) *Food + Libation = Fun times *Parking is a hot mess, I recommend parking at least a half mile away and walking so you don't get stuck in traffic when leaving with all the closed/blocked streets surrounding the area

    I've never climbed before, so I don't know what other climbing gyms are like. In light of that, my…read moreexperience here was great. I took the beginners class (included with a membership) that introduced me to the important knots for climbing. You get the needed equipment included with your first class (harness, shoes, belaying carabineers) although you can bring your own if you have it. If you aren't sure about gear, they have daily and monthly rentals while you figure it out. They've said that the routes will be getting changed regularly so it never gets stale, and they have some impressively challenging looking ones (I'll need a few years to work up to some of them). The staff that I've interacted with have all been very friendly. I've talked to them a few times outside of Ubergrippen (usually at Cheluna trivia night) and they've stated that becoming a part of the local community is really important to them. I'm really excited that they came to this community and I'm excited about having them here for a long time to come.

    I visited this climbing gym on a Sunday in April 2026. I was greeted and checked in with belay…read morecertification within 30 minutes, having been an invited guest. We needed this to climb. Once I finished these necessities, I was ready to climb. Within these thirty minutes, the gym got overrun by children of all ages and their parents. We had a rough time getting on routes, as the congestion was overwhelming. Parents who were belaying, letting their kids just hang off the wall without progress being made for way too long. We got tired of being tertiary patrons and left after losing patience. I inquired on our way out and was informed that gym is often overrun by children. This day had a "special" event but seemed more like the norm after inquiring. If you want to climb, I'd look elsewhere.
