Designed as a streetcar suburb for wealthy Denver families, the area was platted in 1887 by Eugene A. von Winkle. Montview Boulevard and Monaco Parkway are main thoroughfares in Park Hill and reveal the importance of parkways to Denver’s early city planners. Street trees were planted here as early as 1907 and today provide a ceremonial feeling and heavily shaded environment.
