Why Capitol Hill has its own termite considerations
Built for owners of historic Victorian homes, converted rowhouse/apartment units, and small multifamily building owners.
Capitol Hill holds Victorian mansions and rowhouses from the 1880s-1900s, including the historic "Millionaire’s Row" along 14th Avenue, plus early-1900s Denver Squares and later apartment-building infill.
The neighborhood sits at the edge of the Colorado State Capitol grounds.
Brick Victorian masonry with wood-frame interior structure, wood porches, and older wood-sash windows are common entry points that a century-plus of settling and weather can widen.
Very old, architecturally ornate wood-and-brick construction makes Capitol Hill among the oldest housing stock in the curated 20-area set — exactly the kind of housing where routine inspection matters most.
