While the name “Five Points” is often applied to the greater neighborhood to the northeast of Downtown, Five Points is more widely known as the busy retail, restaurant and services corridor on Welton Street. Since Five Points’ founding in the 1860s as one of Denver’s first residential suburbs, this area around Welton Street has evolved into a vibrant mixed-use district that today offers a direct link to Downtown Denver via RTD’s light rail line.
