West Boulder Neighborhood Profile
|
|
|
Boulder was first settled as a gold mining supply town at the mouth of Boulder Creek and Boulder Canyon in the 1860's. The West Boulder Neighborhood contains among the oldest homesteads in Boulder. Mapleton Avenue was treeless until it was lined with maple trees planted 100-years ago. You will find historic districts and homes in this area of Boulder.
The fabled Pearl Street Mall is just east of this area. West of the Pearl Street Mall is a small business district known as "The West End". Here you will find a neighborhood natural grocery, an apothecary, a wine shop, a bakery, a garden shoppe, cafes, etc.
Several City Parks can be found in this area, as well as trailheads leading into the foothills.
As you walk the old streets of West Boulder you can sense the heritage of Boulder. This is where the pioneers and their families first lived -- close to the mountains.
