History of Park Hill
The Park Hill neighborhood was developed in 1882. It orginated by one of Denver's most eccentric promoters in Denver City History- Baron Allios Gillaume Engine von Winckler . Inspired by Baron von Richthofen who at the time was promoting the new east Denver suburb of Montcliar. In 1985 the two join together and purchased a substantial amount of real estate all of which was east of City Park. The joint venture was short lived for reasons cited as a personality conflict between the Baron of Montclair and the would be Baron of Park Hill.
On April 7, 1887, Baron von Winckler platted Park Hill into a 32 acre tract bordered by what today is Colorado Boulvard, Dahlia Street, Montview Boulevard and 26th Ave. Park Hill was soon the home of an Arabian Horse Race Track and Denver's first dog pound. When the Spanish-American War began in 1898, Baron von Winckler offered some of his land north of 26th Avenue and east of Colorado Boulvard as a camp for the Colorado National Guard. Housing 150 Sibley tents which housed 1,400 soldiers. After the guard was decamped in full dress into Denver bound to the Philippines the Baron became more and more despondant and on June 21, 1898 he committed suicide after swallowing a massive amount of strychnine followed by two .44 caliber rounds to the left side of his chest.
In April 1900, seven homes were offered for sale along Montview Boulvard at a cost of $5,000 each. No water, no sewage, no lights and no trees. just wind swept prairie land which soon grew to a population of 2,500. Park Hill became an international community and included families from England, Denmark, Germany, Holland and Italy. African-Americans we also among Park Hill's earliest settlers. Later came Hartman's Addition, More's Park Heights and Park Hill's Railway.
After World War II Denver expereinced a housing shortage and many 1,000 sq/ft homes began sprouting up in old dairies and airfields of northern Park Hill ranging from $5,000 to $10,000. Today Park Hill consists of approximately 510 blocks. Park Hill today is known as a well-built, stylistically distinguished historical neighborhood that attracts those who appreciate the ethinic and economic and architectural diversity thats exists.
