Five Points. One of Denver’s oldest neighborhoods, with block after block of Victorian homes mixed with luxury lofts and new housing developments, Five Points is one of the few historically  predominantly African American-owned commercial strips in the country. Some have referred to the area as the “Harlem of the West” for its jazz history, where many of the greats, including Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, and more played at clubs like Rossonian and the Rainbow Room. The area was mentioned frequently in Jack Kerouac’s On the Road. The Stiles African American Heritage Center, The Blair-Caldwell African American Research Library, and The Black American West Museum & Heritage Center tell the story of the African-American in the West. Explore Five Points' rich heritage with the Denver Story Trek, an interactive, multimedia tour that takes you to Denver's greatest historic attractions.
